On our first day on Lanzarote, we went for a walk South along the town in which we were staying: Puerto del Carmen.
There were a few waders around the rocks at the southern end of Los Pocillos beach the most surprising of which was a whimbrel. I manged to get fairly close.
I was comfortable enough to tuck up and have a nap!
This turnstone posed nicely on a rock too.
Other birds included these yellow legged gulls.
One of the most common birds are collared doves.
We got all the way down to the Varadero Harbour which Ill post about tommorow.
