Hello together,

how is birdwatching in and around Madeira end of March ?
How is about pelagic birds in this time ?

Best regards
Dieter

Dear Dieter,

Historical data on what to expect when birding in Madeira in march can be found here:

http://www.madeirabirds.com/
http://madeira.seawatching.net/recent.html

There is scant information about seawatching in march/april:

http://s3.trektellen.nl/trektelling.asp?telpost=338&site=0&land=6&taal=2&datum=20140328

(I am highly skeptical concerning those Balearics but march/april is probably the best period for Barolo).

I know of only 1 pelagic before the 20’th of april: 01-04-2011 with sightings of Gannet, Manx, Sooty, Cory´s and Bonxie.


Enjoy, Michel

Dear Michel,

thank You very much, this are excellent pages.
Maybe I will go there later a year.
In May also many wild flowers should be on Madeira.


Best regards
Dieter
