These include the: Black Grouse ( Tetrao tetrix ), the Nightjar ( Caprimulgus europaeus ), the Woodlark ( Lullula arborea ), the Great Grey Shrike ( Lanius excubitor ), the Red-backed Shrike ( Lanius collurio ), the Stonechat ( Oenanthe oenanthe ), the Wryneck ( Jynx torquilla ), the European Green Woodpecker ( Picus viridis ), the Wheatear ( Saxicola torquata ), the Curlew ( Numenius arquata ), the Quail ( Coturnix coturnix ) and the Black Stork ( Ciconia nigra ).

Though fairly similar to females and immatures of the European Stonechat S. rubicola, the Whinchat can readily be distinguished by its conspicuous supercilium and whiter belly, and also in western Europe, by being paler overall than the western European Stonechat subspecies S. rubicola hibernans.

Its main call is a hue-tac-tac, the ' tac ' softer and less grating than that of the European Stonechat ; the call is used both for contact between birds and predator alarms.

It retains the supercilium found in many Muscicapidae but lost in the more derived Saxicola species such as the European Stonechat or African Stonechat ( S. torquatus ).

In the past, the European Stonechat was generally considered conspecific with the Siberian Stonechat and African Stonechat, lumped together as Common Stonechat S. torquatus.

Due to a misunderstanding of the rules of Zoological nomenclature, for a short time the name S. torquatus was erroneously used for the European Stonechat rather than the African Stonechat.

Together with the Siberian Stonechat and Canary Islands Stonechat it constitutes eastern and western representatives of an Eurasian lineage ; the Asian and European populations separated during the Late Pliocene or Early Pleistocene, roughly 1. 5-2. 5 mya, and Fuerteventura was colonised by western European or northwest African birds somewhat later in the Early Pleistocene, about 1-2 mya.

Stonechat, European

It was included in the " Common Stonechat " ( Saxicola torquata ), but it is quite distinct ; it is likely to be an insular derivative of ancestral European Stonechats that colonised the islands some 1-2 mya, during the Early Pleistocene ( Wink et al.

The Canary Islands Stonechat is intermediate in appearance between the European Stonechat and the Whinchat ; its body size and shape reminiscent of a lithe European Robin.

In Britain, France and Ireland, it is particularly noted for supporting Dartford Warblers ( Sylvia undata ) and European Stonechats ( Saxicola rubicola ); the common name of the Whinchat ( Saxicola rubetra ) attests to its close association with Ulex.

It is well to bear in mind that gasoline will cost from $.80 to $.90 for the equivalent of a United States gallon and while you might prefer a familiar Ford, Chevrolet or even a Cadillac, which are available in some countries, it is probably wiser to choose the smaller European makes which average thirty, thirty-five and even forty miles to the gallon.

Rates for American cars are somewhat higher, ranging from about $8.00 a day up to $14.00 a day for a Chevrolet Convertible, but the rate per kilometer driven is roughly the same as for the larger European models.

Since most European cars average more miles per gallon of gasoline than American cars, it naturally follows that the cost per kilometer for these models will be less, but the greater seating capacity of the large American cars will equalize this, provided your group is sufficiently large to fill a 7-passenger limousine.

It is a popular belief that alchemists made contributions to the " chemical " industries of the day — ore testing and refining, metalworking, production of gunpowder, ink, dyes, paints, cosmetics, leather tanning, ceramics, glass manufacture, preparation of extracts, liquors, and so on ( it seems that the preparation of aqua vitae, the " water of life ", was a fairly popular " experiment " among European alchemists ).

Major never succeeded in reconciling the " Euro-rebels " among his MPs to his European policy, who although relatively few in number-in spite of the fact that their views were much more widely supported amongst Conservative activists and voters-wielded great influence because of his small majority, and episodes such as the Maastricht Rebellion inflicted serious political damage on him and his government.
