1 Boa Vista, Cape Verde January 8 15 th 2018 Hans-Åke & Karin Gustavsson Exercisgatan 30 B SE Malmö Sweden hans-ake.gustavsson@telia.com
2 General This short report contains the bird observations made on the island of Boa Vista during a one-week charter trip together with my wife. Most of our stay was spent relaxing and birding was confined to early morning walks close to our hotel as well as during a half day guided trip to the southern and interior parts of the island and during a half day visit to the Rabil Lagoon by taxi. Travel & arrangements The journey was a one week charter trip with TUI from Copenhagen and we stayed in the Marine Club Beach Resort just north of Sal Rei, on the northern part of the island. The accommodation was of good standard and included a nice buffet breakfast. A visa is necessary for visiting Cape Verde. This can be obtained in the airport upon arrival or, as in our case, be handled by the tour operator. Cost 25 Euros. Street view Sal Rei Food In Sal Rei there are quite a few restaurants serving a variety of food. Some of the restaurants served food of unexpectedly high quality and we like to recommend especially the following ones: Manera, close to the church in Sal Rei: Italian style food of high quality Porton di nos Ilha: Rua Marginal at the south end of Praia Diante: rooftop 2 nd floor with sea view and very good seafood El Mirador, beach front just south of the main square: rooftop 2 nd floor with sea view with Spanish style food which tasted homemade. Getting around Local transport is easily done by taxi (Aluguer). Prices are fixed and there are normally plenty of cars around. A reliable taxi driver for longer trips is Germano Lima, phone He can often be found outside the Marine Club Beach Resort.
3 The market in Sal Rei Birding guides In order to get around also to other parts of the island, we contacted the local company Naturalia, web and mail for a half day (08:00-13:30) guided birding tour to a number of sites. These included the Rabil Lagoon, the Pedreira Quarry, Ribeira Cruzinha Brito Lagoon (close to the Riu Touareg resort), Curral Velho shore, Fonte Vicente and Monte Trigo. We were guided by Strava Delgado in a 4x4 car, which is a necessity in many places, and we had a very pleasant tour also getting a lot of general information about the island. Birds The number of species present is quite limited but two of the Cape Verde land bird endemics are easily found on Boa Vista: Alexander s Swift and the ubiquitous Cape Verde Sparrow. On top of this, Cape Verde Shearwater breeds in small numbers but is normally difficult to see outside the breeding season. Other birds of interest are a number of species otherwise difficult to see within the Western Palearctic such as Helmeted Guineafowl, Brown Booby, Red-billed Tropicbird and Black-crowned Sparrow-Lark. Also the local races of Kestrel, Cream-colored Cursor and Greater Hoopoe-Lark deserve attention. The small island Ilhéu dos Pássaros is well known for its colony of White-faced Storm-Petrels for which a night time visit however is necessary to see the birds. One of the former high-lights of Boa Vista were the last remaining breeding Magnificent Frigatebirds of the eastern Atlantic. It however seems that the latest breeding took place in 2016 and even if single birds still might linger in the area, especially around the former breeding site, Ilhéu de Curral Velho, you nowadays need to have a lot of luck to find them. Further, any area with water deserves a check and the potential of Nearctic vagrants is quite high.
4 Sites The Sal Rei Lagoon refers to the area of former saltpans just north of Sal Rei. Bird numbers vary with water level but normally a good number of shorebirds are present. E.g. White-rumped Sandpiper has been recorded in the area. The Rabil Lagoon, also known as Ribeira d Aqua is situated a few km south of Sal Rei and can easily be reached by taxi. The area is under pressure from the activities of a large nearby resort (e.g. kite surfing lessons in the lagoon itself) but is still one of the best sites on the island. The Riu Touareg Lagoon refers to the wetland just east of the Riu Touareg Resort on the southern part of the island, close to the Ilhéu de Curral Velho. We only made a fairly short visit but found odd birds such as Marsh Sandpiper and Black-headed Gull. High potential! List of species 1.
