2018 Canary Islands - MuskieBait - 03-30-2018 11:20 PM Being a teacher has its perks. Recently, we had a week of school holidays in March. I found some cheap flights to the Canary Islands and decided to spend 7 days there. We started with 4 days on Fuerteventura followed by 3 days on Tenerife. I haven't had time to write the blog yet...I just managed to edit the pics and upload them onto the blog. Maybe I can work on the writing on Easter Sunday. Let's start off with a bang with some panoramic views... Parque Natural Jandia Cofete and Pico de la Zarza Fuerteventura La Entallada Parque Natural Corralejo Punta de Teno Masca Masca Even more Masca Teide Teide Caldera Chinamada Some extra scenery shots... Hornos de Cal de La Guirra, Fuerteventura Antigua, Fuerteventura View around Mirador de Morra Velosa Castillo del Toston La Entallada Parque Natural Corralejo Punta de Teno Teide Teide Anaga Did you expect me to go anywhere without catching some new species? There was a bit of overlap in species with the Mediterranean, so it wouldn't exactly be easy to do well on with a large number of new species in the Canaries. However, with a bit of determination, I did catch 21 new species White Seabream (Diplodus sargus) - Species #772 Guinean puffer (Sphoeroides marmoratus) - Species #773 Canary Damsel (Abudefduf luridus) - Species #774 Golden Grey Mullet (Chelon aurata) - Species #775 Azores chromis (Chromis limbata) - Species #776 Madeira Goby (Mauligobius maderensis) - Species #777 Rock-pool Blenny (Parablennius parvicornis) - Species #778 Bastard grunt (Pomadasys incisus) - Species #779 Axillary Seabream (Pagellus acarne) - Species #780 Common Two-Banded Seabream (Diplodus vulgaris) - Species #781 Salema (Sarpa salpa) - Species #782 Sharpsnout Seabream (Diplodus puntazzo) - Species #783 Black Scorpionfish (Scorpaena porcus) - Species #784 Saddled Seabream (Oblada melanura) - Species #785 Madeira Rockfish (Scorpaena maderensis) - Species #786 Red Porgy (Pagrus pagrus) - Species #787 Pearly Razorfish (Xyrichtys novacula) - Species #788 Emerald wrasse (Symphodus trutta) - Species #789 Molly Miller (Scartella cristata) - Species #790 Rock Goby (Gobius paganellus) - Species #791 Macaronesian Sharpnose-Puffer (Canthigaster capistrata) - Species #792 ~~~~ And some non-lifers Annular Seabream (Diplodus annularis) Comber (Serranus cabrilla) Mediterranean Rainbow Wrasse (Coris julis) Cardinalfish (Apogon imberbis) Painted Comber (Serranus scriba) Flathead Grey Mullet (Mugil cephalus) Ornate Wrasse (Thalassoma pavo) Planehead Filefish (Stephanolepis hispidus) RE: 2018 Canary Islands - OldTimer - 04-01-2018 06:35 AM AWESOME!
