The Greek island of Lesbos is a famous
destination for birdwatchers and naturalists.
In spring and autumn, the already impressive
number of breeding birds swells with the
arrival of countless migratory birds. The old
trails and tracks between the villages invite
for walks amidst picturesque woodlands,
groves and meadows, with the blue Aegean
never far away. On your way you’ll pass along swathes of orchids, anemones
and tulips, while every now and then, a tortoise stoically crosses your path.
All this is Lesbos – the island of birds, flowers, reptiles and other natural
attractions. Add to this the many hours of sunshine, pretty villages and fine,
locally grown food and wine, and you know why Lesbos is a dream destination
for nature lovers.
