Lesvos 2015: More bird pics...

Better? Some of you have asked for more bird pics and less of cars and landscapes! Anyway, having got my car I decided to investigate areas close to 'home' first i.e. around Petra. Between Petra and Anaxos the coast seemed birder-free, surprising when one considers that there are off-shore islands where some species breed, I'm told that Audouin's Gull and these Alpine Swifts are 2 of those species. I didn't manage to photograph Audouin's ( but I did see a couple this year. Yay! ) so hope these Swift pix will keep all of you bird-gluttons satisfied for now...
