I have a week booked in Paphos from Feb 1st to the 8th. It will be a mixture of birding and tourism but I was wondering what sites would be good to visit at that time of the year.
I do have a Cyprus site guide by Dave Gosney but it really covers the migration hot spots.
I have noticed at least three birds that would be lifers but not sure if they are resident or migratory.
Cyprus Warbler and Wheatear and Black Francolin. Those would be high on my list if possible (I know the airport is supposed to be a bit of a stronghold for the Francolin but possibly not wise due to Optics not really acceptable in the area).
Any advice on what could be seen and where would be gratefully received.
