June Wetland Counts

Spent the last few days completing the wetland counts for BirdLife Cyprus. During the summer we do not expect to get get much at our sites, so very quiet. Nice to see family groups of our breeding Finch's such as Greenfinch, Goldfinch and Linnet. Highlights of wetland must be a returning Greater Sand Plover at the headland in Paphos which certainly means the start of the return autumn passage.
