After such a successful day with our guides, we didn't really do much for the remainder of our short stay on the island other than walking around the area we were staying. Here, the elegant Audouin's Gull was the only gull present and seemed to be quite common so we got to spend a lot of time admiring them. We spent even more time, though, watching the antics of a fearless immature Shag which was chasing fish amongst the bathing holidaymakers off Can Pastilla beach. It even seemed to be deliberately using the tourists by chasing the fish towards them so that they would then panic (the fish, not the bemused bathers!) and swim straight back into its beak. I also identified a few butterflies I'd not seen before, such as Cleopatra, Southern Gatekeeper and this Southern Brown Argus which was posing so nicely, it was just asking to have its photo taken.
