We are starting to get nests now too - after a week without anything, we've had our 2nd and 3rd nests within 2 days, the last one was found this morning whilst I was doing some nest relocations in Rethymno (it's my day off, what else would I do??).
Our camp is very nice, much nicer than the Reth camp, there is no electricity, but it's good to have somewhere that is just your own. The beach is nice too, but it's long. Morning Survey is a 5km beach walk, with a 5km walk back to the camp too! The Xania kiosk is in a great spot too - look at this view!
There are quite a lot of birds around in the Xania campsite too, we have a family of Red-footed Falcons visit us every evening to feast on the flying bugs. We also have lots of small warblers - one of which flew inside a hot car and got itself a bit dehydrated. The poor thing looked like it was on it's last legs - lots of water and half an hour in the shade and it was back full of life and shouting for it's mum!
That's it for now, I've got a few bits & pieces to do before heading back over to Xania.
Cya!
John
