Azores Bullfinch Project

Conservation of the Azores Bullfinch with the Portuguese Society for the study of Birds (SPEA)

The Azores Bullfinch (pyrrhula Murina) project is carried out by SPEA (The Portuguese Society for the study of Birds).

There are estimated to be just 100 breeding pairs found in a small area in the forests in the north east of São Miguel.

These are currently threatened by the loss of native vegetation and their habitat through forestry and farming.
