Juvenile Birder

Just won Zeiss Young Birders Award. Am ecstatic and in shock!!

@Isabelline1 @NoahBai14527125 As I understand it, development is now limited on the island to protect these special birds.

@Bird3r @NoahBai14527125 Very heartening to see this. When I visited Canaries in the 90's, I thought the Houbara's & Coursers i saw would be long gone by now.

1st Birding Trip Abroad! Phenomenal Time on Fuerteventura, with 21 Lifers! Highlights of the Desert Include: Dancing Houbara Bustards ✅ Six Stunning Cream-coloured Coursers ✅ Endemic Fuerteventura Chat ✅ Beautiful Black-bellied Sandgrouse ✅

@RobsBirding Thanks Rob, hope to catch up with you soon!

@Bird3r Cracking photos 😊

@philjo61 @NoahBai14527125 I'm already planning my next trip 😉

@Bird3r @NoahBai14527125 First of many I’m sure 😎
