Bird species at the Barragem de Poilao, Vogelarten, Santiago Island, Cabo Verde


At the reservoir I have recently had time to shoot pictures of a wide variety of birds, partly rare endemics, partly African vagrants, partly European migrants. Often I could combine two or three species in one frame.

Sandregenpfeifer (Common Ringed Plover) and Bekassine (Common Snipe)


 Common Sandpiper (Flußuferläufer)


 Greenshank (Grünschenkel), Stilt (Stelzenläufer),und Snipe (Bekassine)



A study in different hunting techniques:
Stilt and Western Reef Heron, Stelzenläufer und Riffreiher.


Wood Sandpiper ( Bruchwasserläufer) und ein beringter Sandregenpfeifer ( Common Ringed Plover)




Black Heron (Glockenreiher)

 Purple Heron, Purpurreiher


Dark hunters side by side:
