Rain!

The day started off very breezy though it was still warm and sunny (unlike at home where they are just about to get blasted by Storm Jorge!). Started at Cape Greco but it was very quiet - we are feeling like this is our “local patch” now 😊 All the birds were keeping their heads down out of the wind.

Off to the mound (old dump/tip) where it was also fairly quiet apart from 8 Meadow Pipits, a couple of Spectacled Warblers chasing each other around and a Kestrel. Headed back home for an early lunch and our now customary sit in the sun - the clouds were gathering on the horizon though...

We decided against going out birding this afternoon and went down and parked up in Protaras, had a look at the lovely Fig Tree Bay then headed into the streets to find coffee. It is still very much out of season here and mostly a ghost town but Starbucks was open and we plumped for Oat Lattes and warm Cinnamon Buns 😊 The skies were dark with impending rain and we just managed to get back to the apartment before it lashed down with humongous rain drops.もっと詳しく
