On our Cyprus trip we spent one day at Paphos Headland, where despite there not being very many migrants, there was a nice variety.
One of the first birds was a female
Ruppell's Warbler which was one of our main targets for the trip, while other birds around the headland included a
Thrush Nightingale,
Black-eared Wheatear,
Masked Shrike,
Eastern Subalpine Warbler and 4
Purple Herons in off.
Commoner birds included
Nightingales,
Spanish Sparrows and
Corn Buntings.
On the way home a nice surprise was an early
Roller sat on some roadside wires.
