Capirote canario

            Esta curruca, también conocida como curruca capirotada, es una de las 3 subespecies que se distribuyen por España, si bien heineken en concreto solo se localiza en el sur de la península Ibérica y Canarias. Posee el característico capirote (plumas de la parte superior de la cabeza) negro en los machos y castaño en las hembras y los ejemplares jóvenes, de ahí sus nombres comunes.
Se trata de un ave de aspecto compacto que mide alrededor de 13 cm de longitud y entre 20 y 23 cm de envergadura. Es muy similar a la curruca mosquitera (Sylvia borin) y a ambas las diferencia del resto de currucas el hecho de que les faltan las plumas externas en la cola y el color blanco en la garganta. El plumaje general es de color gris, con las alas rojizas en las hembras y el característico capirote, negro en los machos y castaño en las hembras y jóvenes. El melodioso canto de esta curruca es también muy reconocible, compuesto por distintos ritmos e intensidades. Además, emite un "chec-chec-chec" a modo de reclamo.

This warbler , also known as the blackcap , is one of the 3 subspecies that are distributed throughout Spain, although Heineken in particular is only located in the south of the Iberian Peninsula and the Canary Islands. It has the characteristic hood (feathers on the top of the head) black in males and brown in females and young specimens, hence their common names.

It is a compact-looking bird that measures around 13 cm in length and between 20 and 23 cm in wingspan. It is very similar to the warbler (Sylvia borin) and both are differentiated from the rest of the warblers by the fact that they lack the external feathers on their tail and the white color on their throat. The general plumage is gray, with reddish wings in females and the characteristic hood, black in males and brown in females and young people. The melodious song of this warbler is also very recognizable, composed of different rhythms and intensities. In addition, it issues a "chec-chec-chec" as a complaint.
