"What a super, flawless trip on Lesvos! What a team Gina and Steve are!
And such a nice group of birders to spend a week with. One of the highlights for me, as an older birder, was staying in the SAME hotel for the week. Thanks for all your efforts to get all of us on the birds! And Lesvos is such a great spot for experiencing migration. I liken it a bit to our Cape May, a Mecca for eastern birders. Only I think Lesvos has far many more birds. I will never forget the day when we experienced the fallout in the valleys. One of the best birding days I’ve ever experienced! A great trip, great hotel, great camaraderie and beyond great leaders!"
