About

Sightings are compiled from my own observations and from reports kindly shared by local and visiting birders, including through the platforms listed below.

If you have seen something interesting on Lesvos, I’d be very happy to hear from you — whether it is a notable bird, an interesting count, a photograph, or simply a useful field observation. Every contribution helps build a better picture of the birds present on the island, and contributors are always credited unless they prefer otherwise.
