About this record
- Supporting evidence
- https://www.madeirabirds.com/mark_coller_bird_records_madeira — The seal entry is under the 16 May 2010 heading, after a separate Lido seawatch. Search previews quote 14 May from an earlier section; that is not the seal's date. Source gives no individual identification.
