Having been away for two months at the end of the year, Laura was keen to go on a short holiday with just the two of us to compensate for my absence. We eventually decided on a little less than a week visiting Tenerife, one of the Canary Islands. Although it would not be a birding holiday, there were five new species for me on offer on the island and I made sure to incorporate some time into trying to find them.
Our inbound flight from Paris arrived late in the afternoon, and it was a half hour drive to the small town of Alcalá where we would be staying, so there was no time on the first afternoon for any exploring, but I still recorded my first target with a Canary Island Chiffchaff singing in the airport car park. We settled in at our AirBnB for the evening, ready for this new adventure.
