is this Lesvos ??
Either really, would depend on cost and schedule ! I like the idea of a guide tho! someone who knws where to look and good spots !
HIde is probably my fav but I liek all sorts, not really interested in raptors tho, more the smaller species!
Thanks, yes I realize hopw broad it is , but this way I hoped for a varoiety fo replies and suggestions, really anything a bit different from my garden birds, done tits, robins etc to death, considering a guided tour or a guide or even maybe on my own, but do not what to wander aimlessly and not get good pics ! hope that makes some sense ;-)
Yes.
Yes- same thing. When I went I remember birding from the roadside being productive , at one point overlooking salt pans with all sorts on view and getting around was easy. Also lots of great garden and flyover birds whilst you take it easy. Bee-eaters, flycatchers, raptors, Shrikes etc.
Never been, but I believe there are some great photography hide set-ups in Hungary, for species such as roller and other steppe species - I recall reading a book on bird photography by a couple of Hungarian guys and a Finnish photographer - only problem is some of these photography-specific hides can be expensive to access I believe.
There are indeed, and the range of species available is great, including charismatic stuff from Roller and Red-footed Falcon to Bee-eater, shrikes and arrays of warblers. As for cost, you can do it all-in and I should say spend less than on a full/half board hotel holiday in UK. The saving in terms of time and effort finding, let alone getting close to, birds for good photography, will also mean one trip could substitute for several solo efforts.
