NIce photo, Eduard.
Local Canarian subspecies Burhinus o. distinctus (central and western islands) and B. o. insularum (eastern islands and islets) are clearly darker than B. o. saharae, from the nearby region of Morocco and Western Sahara, but more similar in colour to the nominate one. The main difference with B. o. oedicnemus is the size.
