Our Greece Mainland Spring Migration tour has started with a bang. 22 species of raptor and 25 shorebird species are among a huge number of key targets we have already seen on the tour so far. We have also enjoyed lively spring weather, excellent food and beautiful scenery.
The marshlands of the Greek coast have been teeming with birds including stunning Black Terns.
