I confess I only investigated this site on seeing photos of a rather fine Western Reef Heron recently found there. However, my interest was further whetted by an interesting recent video (albeit somewhat propagandistic and with a vaguely robotic voice over) about the place and its birdlife which I found online -

The video seems to suggest that birders can visit the area, but does not give details and neither does the website on the place (
www.vetalapalma.es). It certainly seems a wonderful place - does anyone know about access arrangements?
