Kalloni Birds, Lesvos, Greece
Kalloni is a large gulf in the island, which itself is quite large. At the end of the gulf is a salt works & associated drainage channels. These are a haven for birds, with flamingos usually in the salt pans (not today), and other fresh water waders in the channels. Being a haven for birds, it also, therefore a haven for birders, and twitchers, and every other kind of odd bod like us. We met folks from UK & Holland & enjoyed talking with them. The scenery was nice, too ! It is hay-making time, the birds all have young around them, the early summer scents are marvellous. Lovely to be here !
