Cyprus numbers

Opened up the old computer for a breathe of fresh air to add my sightings from this trip. My dubious calculations now has my Cyprus list at a very modest 136. Plenty to go at!


Following my Easter trip in '95 I've added some winter birds including the 3 stars, namely WALLCREEPER, FINSCH'S WHEATEAR and GREATER SAND PLOVER
