I was very pleased to spend a splendid day with you around Athens. It was great to find all my target birds, other beautiful species and having a nice trek on the mountains' slopes close to the capital. I enjoyed very much your company and your expertise. Thank you, and hope to see you again during another birding trip in Greece. Attila Simay, Hungary. attilasimay(AT)hotmail.com The birding day was very enjoyable and you were an extremely good guide. You were prompt in picking me up at my hotel and we immediately went to the birding areas. Your English was very good, knowledge of the birds and the area seemed to be "top grade", and you made every effort to answer all of my questions. I would be more than happy to recommend your services to any wishing to bird the Athens' area. Gary Grey, South Carilina, USA. popsgaryg(AT)yahoo.com In may 2006 I made a birdtrip to Greece. When I looked after locations to se birds I came across Spyros Skareas, who is a bird guide and tour leader. I can really recommend others birdwatchers, that will come and look for birds in Greece, to hire Spyros for guiding. In my case i had great help finding Rock Partridge and Olive-tree Warbler. Hans Westerberg, Sweden. hans.westerberg(AT)telia.com Spyros Skareas is a long time Birdingpal guide, well known in his own country and by myself or birders from around the world. Knud Rasmussen, Birdingpal G Ramel Lake Kerkini, Serron Anytime Englishsome Greek Wetland Kerkini is quite possibly the best birding in Europe, obviously you can't find all European birds here, but 150 plus in a week is not difficult and 100 a day is quite possible in Spring and Autumn. If you are only making one trip to Europe, then make it Wetland Kerkini. We have a lake, rivers, marshes, canals and two mountain ranges with a wide variety of habitats. For more info on the area see my website www.lake-kerkini.earthlife.net/ I am available for hire to any group coming to the area, and I am the best in the area. However I am generally happy just to take a day or two away from the microscope to go birding with any one visiting. Unfortunately I do not have a car at the moment, a result of my tendency to work voluntarily, so you will have to collect me from my village.
