Dear Jan,

Very nice photo, congratulations. It's curious that the males of this species are quite similar (morphologically) to the ones of our Canary Islands Stonechat,  endemic to Fuerteventura.

Best regards.

Yes, it is funny how in both these island endemics the males have a white supercilium.

And the orange colour of the breast is quite similar in both species...
