Hi,
I’d like to know which bird species in Tenerife is considered “naturalized”, ie – if I’m not wrong – is into “Category C” having a self-sustaining populations (definition from this site Species categories - British Ornithologists' Union). So, in other words, species which are valid info a life list.
It ‘d be very nice also to have some tips about where to find them.
Anyway, I’ll tale a look in Ebird too. About web sites which collect sightings, any idea if some other site is worth looking, in addition to Ebird?
I’ll be there in mid November.

Category C birds in the Canary Islands (CA in the text), as per SEO 2019 list (https://www.seo.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/ListaAvesdeEspaña2019.pdf , in Spanish but mostly tables with scientific names) are the following: Alectoris barbara, Alectoris rufa, Cairina moschata, Psittacula krameri, Myopsitta monachus and Estrilda astrild
