BIRDING IN LANZAROTE (CANARY ISLANDS)

Thursday, March 20, 2008 - THE CITRINE WAGTAIL AT FAMARA (LANZAROTE)

by Francisco Javier García Vargas

 

On 19/III/2008, with my good friend Juan José Ramos, I detected an adult male Citrine Wagtail in a little wastewater pond of a farm at Famara plains. This is the third record of this species for the Canary Islands and the second for Lanzarote, after the bird at Arrecife between 20/XI/2005 and 18/I/2006 (you can see more details and photos of this record here). A very nice and unexpected spring present.
