In spring 2018, when the rains in the Troodos mountains are no longer so frequent, there are only a few puddles of water near Mount Olympus, to which many bird species then come. In March and April is also the beginning of the breeding season, so many species can be found in her colour-rich feather dress. Enjoy watching YouTube setting 4K, 1440 oder 1080 auswählen bitte.
