Birds Outside of Cleveland / Side, Turkey

Some photos from a family holiday to Side in June. Dipped on the Brown Fish Owl unfortunately. The most productive area locally was definitely Akseki, unless you are prepared to travel much further. I drove up to the plateau above Cimikoy which was spectacular and where the birding was much better than elsewhere. Happy to be corrected on any of the identification.

This post: Red-Fronted Serin, Cretzschmar's Bunting, Graceful Prinia, Long-Legged Buzzard

A few days in Portugal for the mainly raptor migration at the Sagres Festival of Birds. Some new birds for me including Ruppell's Vulture, Great Shearwater, Balearic Shearwater and European Storm Petrel. Others included Honey Buzzard, Common Buzzard, Black Kite, Bonellis Eagle, Short-Toed Eagle, Booted Eagle, Griffon Vulture, Chough, Hen Harrier, Black Stork, Osprey, and finished off in Vilamoura with Black-Winged Kite, Purple Gallinule, Marsh Harrier and Kingfisher. Well worth the visit.
