Peniche Seabird Count 2015 - article published

16/9/2020

0 Comments

 
I remember, as a child, of the eternal summers, running and digging on the extensive sandy beaches that involve Peniche. Still unaware that, most likely, my image was being reflected on the eye of a wandering Arctic tern, flying over the beach, on its way south. Later, in my teens, I started to go seawatching at the cape, what a wonderful, and unforgettable feeling the first group of fast-moving, heavy-bellied Balearic shearwaters. Because Peniche has always a special place in my heart, it's a great pleasure to know that the article with the data from 2015 Peniche Seabird Count Campaign was published in Marine Ornithology.

I would like to thank all the volunteers and sponsors. I wish to dedicate this article to Häkan Peterson in particular. We did share a lot of seabirds and hours in Peniche, but sadly he is no longer here. His memory will endure, like the stubborn rocks at the cape.

    About me

    I was born in west Portugal and began birding at the age of 11. I have particular interest in bird ringing (banding),  moult, seabirds and rarities. Currently I work as a guide for Birds & Nature Tours.
