Just wondered, if there is Parrots, or Parrot type birds in Fuerteventura ?

There are some around Corralejo. Probably used to be in cages but living wild now. Also hoopoes and ravens around.

There are lots of green Monks and Ring-necked parakeets on the island, originally escapees but now living happily in the wild. Both are very noisy.

Hedgehogs come to my garden, they don't make any noise at all, except rustling of leaves in the undergrowth. 8) 8) 8)
