KOS ISLAND: Bird Migration Tuesday 1 st - Tuesday 8th May 2018
5 Wise Birding Clients Leader: Mike Langman HIGHLIGHTS OF TRIP Bee-Eaters & Rollers: Colourful and always a pleasure to see and photograph. Finding a much rarer Blue-cheeked Bee-eater on a walk from our hotel would have undoubtedly been top if only all of the group had been up to see it! Birds of Prey: an impressive 15 species of raptor were seen during the week. Several featured in the group highlights including Red-footed Falcons, Lesser Kestrels and Bonelli’s Eagles including a pair talon grappling. Other Wildlife: A good selection of butterflies and several reptile species. Plain Tiger was a surprise as literature suggests they shouldn’t be out until July! Spur-thighed Tortoises, Balkan Green Lizards and the pretty little Snake-eyed Lizard were enjoyed by the group.
