RUDDY SHELDUCK

According to studies, everything indicates that this species comes from North Africa, where it has a nomadic behavior and takes advantage of the flooding after the rains. This medium-sized and goose-looking Anatidae was first sighted on April 15, 1994 in Fuerteventura Island, specifically in a “dry dam” in Rosa de Catalina García, Tuineje.

Since that time, this species inhabits the humid areas of Fuerteventura and has expanded to other places in the Canary Islands, including Tenerife, where a few couples have raised in recent years. Let's hope that the couple in the painting, usually seen at Golf Las Américas, decide to become parents in the near future, in this fantastic environment.

GOLF LAS AMÉRICAS WILDLIFE
THE HOOPOE

We are lucky to be able to observe this nice and striking bird, which does not go unnoticed Unmistakable-looking bird, also known as Apupu or Tabobo. It shows on its head a striking crest, of ocher color and with black tips, which it usually deploys when perching, when it is restless or during courtship.

The Hoopoe is insectivorous, it feeds mainly on the larvae and pupae of insects that it looks for directly with the beak in the ground. His singing is a characteristic up-pu-pu-pu, serious and long-range, which has given rise to his Latin name (Upupa).

Bird present all year, with reproduction confirmed according to the status of the Canary Ornithological Society (SOC).
