Think These are Atlantic Canary, African Blue Tit and are they Gran canary black bird(is there such a thing?) or eurasian?
Think the Pipit is Berthelots.
Many thanks

Atlantic Canary, African Blue Tit (Adult + Juv), Eurasian Blackbird, Berthelots Pipit. All look great to me! Nice one!

Perhaps surprisingly the evidence suggests the blackbirds in the canaries are undifferentiated from those in Europe (not sure if they are a different subspecies, but genetically there's minimal difference). "Surprisingly" given the divergence in lots of the other passerines

Edit: should have said: in contrast, some classify this blue tit as a distinct species and different from others on other islands
