Video for animal lovers: Wild animal paradise

Post by cyprusmax47 »

Recently I watched that video from the Swiss Alps and the wild animals there and enjoyed it a lot as many of them you can't find in Cyprus, however....

I expected at least one post on here telling us that also in Cyprus we can see if lucky: hoopoes, kingfisher, owls, eagles, hawks, falcons, foxes, wild goats (mufflons), trouts and many more which are common in Switzerland. However we have here other species which are partly unique like the Cypriot wheatear, bee-eater, grey shrike, flamingos, pelicans, chameleons, agamas, turtles, swordfish, all different kind of sea fish, Egyptian fruit bats, (wingspan 60 cm!) Praying Mantis,etc etc...
Not to forget all the different orchids one can find in Cyprus, many of them endemic. (Ok, they are not animals :)
