Birds of prey in Cyprus

by dave morris
(midlands, england)

Are there birds of prey in Cyprus? Going for the first time next week, was not impressed with Malta, did not see one live bird, even a seagull; these people shoot every migrating bird they see, I hope they are not like that on Cyprus,

thanks, Dave.

Birds of Cyprus
by: Helen (website owner)

Yes we have plenty of birds of prey in Cyprus. Sadly we also have a large percentage of hunters on the island too.

Many of the migrating birds will have left by mid October (best time to see them is in the spring)- clever things as they must know that the hunting season starts end October until end February! For information, Sundays and Wedensdays are shooting days if you go bird watching!

But in the hills and valleys near Polis where we live we see falcons, buzzards and eagles all the time. There are also vultures in the Vretsia valley area.

There's a great little book we have called Birds and Mammals of Cyprus which gives a good guide of what you can find, where and when for bird watching.

Enjoy your trip.
