Paul (UK) and I were birding around central and western Lesvos. I was surprised to find so many spring migrants had arrived on 17 March.

Here are some highlight shots of the birds we had:






We also had Ruddy Shelducks, Glossy Ibisses (not my side of the car…), Short-toed Eagle, Marsh Harriers, Common Swifts, Barn & Red-rumped Swallows, several Black-eared and Northern Wheatears, Blue Rock Thrush, Zitting Cisticola, Western Rock Nuthatch, e.t.c.
