Reviewing Lesvos Will it Never End?

Well, while my car has been failing its MOT I've checked Sidmouth Rd. Cem. several times but nothing as good as the December Yellow-browed. Just Blackcap, Bullfinch, Redwing and 4 species of tit plus Peregrine and Sparrowhawk over. Therefore, I will continue with the Greek backlog as it will be very satisfying when I've completed this 'project'.

Another joy of foreign birding is the species we also get in Britain but which look different. The Jays have black caps, Long-tailed Tits lack pink and Ruffs have red legs. Wacky,eh?

                             At the start of week 2, there was a large influx of Night Herons. Here are two of them.

                       And here is another flock of 24!

                                    What a marvellous breakfast that was...
