These birds were once known as the Canary Islands Chat because they were once seen on all of the islands; they can now only be found on Fuerteventura. In Fuerteventura they are known as Calderetas, they are small black headed birds with a light orange breast.
The Fuerteventura Chat is now listed as endangered because tourist related construction has impinged on their habitat, in addition feral cats prey on their eggs. However, a conservation plan has existed since 1999. The programme, along with the high reproduction rate of these birds gives hope that we can avoid extinction.

Fuerteventura Chat in Morro Jable
These tiny birds are very fast and hard to photograph, this one was seen at Playa Mattoral in the protected area.
