Madeira – Havsfågeltur
30 maj-6 juni 2021

Madeira denna fantastiska portugisiska ö kommer under en vecka att vara skådeplatsen för resan med Fågelguidning AB. Fågelmässigt är det många spännande arter som finns på ön, vissa till och med bara på denna ö. Fokus kommer till stora delar att ligga på fågelskådning till havs, men vi kommer även att hinna med ett besök på en av Madeiras många vingårdar.
Tempot kommer att var lågt/medel och det kommer att finnas väldigt goda fotomöjligheter av havsfåglar under veckan.

Nedan hittar ni en kortfattad beskrivning över veckan, svensk text och mer detaljer kommer inom kort.
