		Cyprus with its spectacular scenery and enviable climate, it's no wonder that Aphrodite chose the island as her playground, and since then, mere mortals have been discovering this 'land fit for Gods' for themselves.
		Cyprus is an island of beauty and a country of contrasts.
		Cyprus is also prized for its bird life, and the migratory birds that use the country as a stopover are eagerly awaited between seasons.

	birding facts Birding Resources by the Fat Birder
		Probably the best time to visit Cyprus is in the spring when, in addition to the hordes of migrants in their readily identifiable breeding plumages one can also see the resident and summer breeding visitors.
		Cyprus is a wonderful country to birdwatch in despite all the illegal shooting, liming and netting of birds that still goes on.
		Cyprus is an excellent birding spot, and luckily we went there also in an excellent season: from April 19 to May 3, 2002...

		This page is divided into 3 sections: 1) Yard List of all the birds seen in or from my yard from January 1, 2000 until today, 2) Travel Lists of other birds I've seen in traveling or on vacation, and 3) Links to other interesting sites about birds and in particular, birdwatching.
		Rare birds are indicated by the year in which I saw them or by the number of times (3x=3 times).
		My criteria for putting a bird on the list is positive identification of a bird that can be seen from anyplace on the property (even if I saw the bird while not on the property).

	Where do you want to go birding in Cyprus today?
		Cyprus, the olive groves near the Baths of Aphrodite on the Akamas Peninsula are a significant migrant trap.
		Cyprus (or at least the Greek part of it) is a largely hilly land of mimosa and carob trees, scattered ruins of various civilisations, huge British military bases where the Red Arrows practise, deserted Turkish villages, and Keo.
		This provided an excellent base for a birding holiday, though this area is not optimal for touring the island since it is stuck at the east end of the republic.

	No Moa: Modeling an Extinction
		As usual in archaeology, the clearer the basic facts, the more debated their interpretation, and questions about exactly how and when the moas became extinct, and the degree to which people were responsible or not, have been kicked around for some time.
		The big birds survived for about 600 years after the arrival of people, according to what Holdaway and Jacomb term the "orthodox model." Recent scrutiny of radiocarbon dates suggests, however, that people arrived in New Zealand in the late thirteenth century, not tenth or eleventh century (Anderson 1991).
		Alan Simmons, excavator of Akrotiri-Aetokremnos, an early site on Cyprus with bones of pygmy hippo and elephant, notes that, "In the few well-documented Mediterranean island cases where there is a temporal overlap between human populations and extinct fauna, it invariably is short..." (1999: 31).

	Birdwatching Trip Report from CYPRUS
		The only birds we saw were the swallows nesting in the dining room at the Vasilias Nikolkis Inn in Nikoklia where we were staying.
		We decided that any additional bird species were likely to be in Paphos, rather than the east of the island, and that our hearts were in Nikoklia, so we decided to head back for our last two nights in Cyprus.
		Phasouri was heaving with birds of much the same species as on the 5th, with the addition of a Greenshank.

	Where do you want to go birding in Greece today?
		The island's vast and varied landscape offers numerous species of birds exactly what they want and thus it is a haven not only for birds but for birdwatchers too who arrive in droves in the spring.
		The speciality birds were easy to see and there were good numbers of passage migrants moving through all week, with a noticable fall occurring on the 1st.
		This trip had two main purposes, neither of them birding: the Greece segment was to attend a professional conference in Dassia on the island of Corfu, and the vacation trip through the northern half of Germany was to visit the ancestral villages of my wife's family.

		It is listed as a "Species of Concern", or as Threatened in Nebraska, North and South Dakota, and Minnesota.

	BIRDS OF A FEATHER......
		There were a few dozen birds and they gave us an audio-visual delineation of the thermal's boundaries that was fascinating.
		We figured the birds were trying to show us that the thermals were of good size and strength and weren't drifting very fast over the back.
		I consider some of the people I flew with in Cyprus to be very, very good, and watching them was genuinely inspirational.

		This hilly town at the base of the Akamas Peninsula was once the capital of Cyprus, and is important in Greek mythology as a site of worship of Aphrodite, who was reputedly born on the island.
		Which meant we were faced with the question of where to stay for this next week, as the people at the Amnesty International office in Nicosia had done their part in hosting us.
		Corinne was sitting and pondering this very question when the answer loped through the door: Christos, the climbing instructor who had earlier helped Corinne recuperate from her injuries.
