Birdwatching in Cape Verde

The islands of Cape Verde have an interesting range of endemic species offering some rare birdwatching opportunities.

Many challenges are facing the wildlife of Cape Verde, but with increased interest from wildlife enthusiasts the tide may change and, with pressure, some of the more endangered species might be saved from extinction.

For anyone with a special interest in the birds of Macaronesia, the islands of Cape Verde can provide an interesting change from the more popular islands of Madeira and the Azores.
