A NEW CITRINE WAGTAIL AT TIAS GOLF COURSE-LANZAROTE

by Francisco Javier García Vargas and Antonio Unquiles Cobos

 

On 12/IV/2008, and adult female Citrine Wagtail was detected at Tías golf course. The bird was near the lake of the golf course, accompanied by two Yellow Wagtails. This is the second bird of this spring, after the ad. male seen at the farm of Famara plains last month (you can see a photopage of this bird here), the third for Lanzarote and the fourth for Canary Islands. An exceptional year for this species in Lanzarote. Or are Citrine Wagtails less rare in Canary Islands than we have expected? Only time will tell.
