Europe's Premier Bird Migration Island - Lesvos Greece - P1330719
Catching the migrating great flamingos - led by a wildlife professor -
Since the early 1990s, Lesvos has rightly established itself as one of the premier birding destinations within the Mediterranean basin. It combines the excitement of migration with several key species which can be otherwise difficult to see elsewhere in Europe.
For four weeks each spring birders from across Europe converge on this outpost of Europe which lies just 5 miles off Turkey and Asia Minor.
