Trip with Alan and Margaret. First we visited the rugged Kourtaliotiko Gorge, a great raptor viewpoint, especially for Griffon Vulture, Golden Eagle and Bearded Vulture. We saw several Griffons on this visit and Crag Martins. |

We then visited Adonis' Gorge N.E. of Spili. We explored this Gorge to point A on the photo below. From here the track leads down to the bridge at B, as it winds its way through the gorge, a trip we hope to finish at a later date. The most notable birds were the Jackdaws, some of them photograhed below. These are the only Cretan Jackdaws we have seen to date 3/1/05. |
