The Complete and Combined Tour of Madeira and the Canary Islands
This trip plan aims to maximize endemics (species and subspecies) of all the island endemics, with 6 pelagic days of masterful chumming operations to photograph all the tubenoses in these waters.
The trip will be guided by Miguel Demeulemeester and Hadoram Shirihai, who have years of experience in finding and photographing the endemic land birds of these archipelagos, as well as years of research on the tubenoses living on these islands.
At this stage, we are only taking pre-booking interests, so please contact us to be placed on the list for further information.
