Welcome to the Cape Tenaro Birder Blog, recording observations of migrant birds and other wildlife at the southern most tip of the Greek mainland.
With limited tree and scrub cover Cape Tenaro is a really great place to observe bird migration. In spring it is the first land fall for migrants arriving from North Africa after a 400km crossing of the Mediterraean Sea; while in the autumn the long, narrow peninsula of the Mani funnels migrant birds moving south.
The Cape Tenaro Birders will be back on the headland tomorrow (22nd April) and the first post with bird news from the headland should appear in the evening.
For now here's a picture of one of the local Corn Buntings taken last year
