North Cyprus Birdwatching
I'm currently giving this website a major overhaul so please bear with me for the many unfinished pages, thank you.
Bird photography and birdwatching information for North Cyprus
Centre picture - Cyprus Pied Wheatear.
392 species have been recorded in Cyprus (correct as of 31st December 2010); of these around 200 occur regularly on passage making the island ideal for bird watching in spring and autumn.
Link to Birdlife Cyprus Checklist of Cyprus Birds
North Cyprus has suffered less from development than the south and offers wonderful opportunities to see birds whether being island specialities or migrants passing through to their summer or wintering areas. At the best places in the right season spectacular numbers and a huge variety of birds can be present but great birds can turn up almost anywhere at any time.

Obviously I don't have pictures of all the birds found in Cyprus, only those I've been lucky to see well enough to photograph. Some are better quality than others but I'm always trying to improve species shots, some are record shots only.
