My first visit to the island of Lesvos in Greece for two weeks from 20th April to 4th May. Birding with long time friend Reg Thorpe, who I haven't been birding abroad with for at least 30 years and yes, we still remain good friends. A superb time encountering a lot of species that I have wanted to see and hear well for a long time. Whilst we didn't have any falls during the visit each day brought new exciting bird experiences as despite the cool and windy weather birds continued to migrate across the island.
