Canaries

Lisa and I have just had a holiday on Gran Canaria and it was hot. The area was Maspalomas, in Maspalomas (as those who have been there will know) there is an area of natural Dunes, the area was created by sea currents bringing in and depositing Saharan sands over thousands of years. On the dunes there is a natural Lake and is a designated Nature Reserve. It is a staging post for migratory species migrating from Africa to their Northern breeding areas. The following photographs are of a male and female Sardinian warbler taken on the Dunes.
