  • European Wallcreeper - Tichodroma muraria muraria This wonderful bird is included in the Red Book of Bulgaria - a status of Vulnerable species. It is rarely encountered - due to increased touristic traffic and the construction of tourist sites some of the registered habitats have been abandoned. It breeds on rock massifs, sometimes quite high.
I managed to capture this beauty in Greece on a dull cloudy cold day. It was worth the freezing and waiting for more than three hours to appear.

  • The Lyristes plebejus Found this by luck really - heard it singing but struggled to pinpoint the noise and location of it. Then there was a single tree about 6' tall and here it was - singing away quite happily. I've heard these for the past 3 years when I've been to Corfu but I've never been able to see one. I was pleased I did find one and get a shot - amazing creatures. Corfu,Geotagged,Greece,Lyristes plebejus,Souther European Cicada,Summer,Tibicen plebejus
