Azores Winter Trip 2011




Images top to bottom (Yellow-crowned Night-Heron, Lesser Yellowlegs, Mediterranean Gulls with Azorean Gull and Black-headed Gull)
Yellow-crowned Night-Heron was visible last night feeding on the waterside rocks of Angra, Terceira-visible in the street lights. We watched it until about 10pm- brilliant bird in an evocative nocturnal setting.
I spent the rest of yesterday around Praia- Lesser Scaup, Great Scaup, Blue-winged Teal, Lesser Yellowlegs, an American Herring Gull/hybrid, 5 Ring-billed Gulls, 4 Mediterranean Gulls and American Coot.
