With a warmer weather in the islands, we start to see the first blossoms of native species in the Laurel Forest. The azores bullfinch or priolo (Pyrrhula murina) knows this and we can already start to see some birds in accessible areas looking for food.

Recovering the priolo (Pyrrhula murina), is the main objective of action C5 in LIFE IP Azores Natura project that aims to recover habitats in the Special Protection Area of Pico da Vara / Ribeira do Guilherme and in Special Areas of Conservation of Serra da Tronqueira / Planalto dos Graminhais, the only places in the world where it is possible to see this bird.

If you come by the area and see the priolo, you can share your sightings through a form that SPEA, partner of LIFE IP Azores Natura, has: (https://www.centropriolo.com/mapa-de-avistamentos).
