These birds populate southern Europe and Africa, which includes the Canary Islands. The Tenerife version is lanius meridionalis koenigii and this sub-species tends to prefer an open, dry habitat. Canarian time is Western European Time (WET) (or GMT; in summer one hour ahead of GMT). So Canarian time is one hour behind that of mainland Spain and the same as that of the UK, Ireland and mainland Portugal all year round.

It is a gregarious bird which often nests in groups with each pair defending a small territory. The cup-shaped nest is built 1–6m above the ground in a tree or bush, most commonly at 3–4m. [10] It is well-hidden amongst leaves, often at the end of a branch or in a fork. It is made of twigs, grass, moss and other plant material and lined with soft material including hair and feathers. [3] To bring in revenue for environmental protection, innovation, training and water sanitation a tourist tax was considered in 2018, along with a doubling of the ecotax and restrictions on holiday rents in the zones with the greatest pressure of demand.
