Yesterday we explored the headland near to the Archeological site at Paphos and today we more or less covered the same region; but this time inside the confines of the site. It was a wonderful visit and I shall include a few photos of the site and, in particular, the mosaics but there were lots of opportunities to see birds and some interesting plants.
The first sighting was of a laughing dove (another first for me, except I now realise that I saw one yesterday) and then a Sardinian warbler.


There were lots of of these Anemone coronarias – some were a much darker purple

The other interesting plant which was prevalent was a Leontodon tuberosus.






Just a few of the ruins and mosaics for a flavour of what we saw (I will come back to this when I have more time and band width).




And a few more birds to conclude:


The locals certainly have stamina here (or perhaps it was a Russian gymnast).
