Bird watching
The President of the Republic began his visit to the “Selvagem” Islands landing on Lesser “Selvagem”, and held contacts with the Wardens of Nature in the Natural Reserve, who presented the several species of local protected fauna and flora.
To celebrate the occasion, President Cavaco Silva placed an identifying ring on a frigate petrel, a characteristic bird of the “Selvagem” Islands, a great number of which exist in the Natural Reserve of the sub-archipelago of the Madeira Autonomous Region.
