BIRD WATCHING HOLIDAYS

Bird song recorded at Kairos Garden the end of May. Thank you, Ardis!

Our place is great for bird watching holidays. I had no idea that there were so many special birds flying around our hotel, but thanks to Pete and Laraine Waldron I have now realized that Kairos garden is one of Greece´s birding hot spots!

(You might also want to check out Kerkini).

Appearantly, the best time for bird watching in Greece is spring and autumn. Pete and Laraine visited us first week in May and here´s a the amazing list of birds they saw:

  • Short Toed Eagle

  • Common Cuckoo
