I attach a couple of photos from a recent trip - report here http://www.birdforum.net/showthread.php?t=300257
They were both taken on Tenerife - the first at Restaurant del Bosque, Ruiz Gorge on 26.02.15 and the second at the cafe at Zona Recreativa de la Caldera on 27.02.15. I believe that the first is a clear superbus but I favour rubecula on the second - presumably a wintering bird - based on the more extensive bib, more sullied underparts and more restricted white eye-ring.
Thoughts?
All the best
