<p>Not a great shot (the bird as 100m or more distant and with midday heat haze to contend with) but quite an uncommon sighting on Lesvos (Greece).<br />
<br />
Found by another couple of birders stopped at the same point we had on the track from Erosos to Meladia.  This very smart male was perched on rocks at the top of the ridge above the road and was clearly singing.  We later drove to the top of the track and re-found the bird somewhat closer then the original sighting (photos from the original site were even worse!).<br />
<br />
A bird I've only ever seen a handful of times previously so this bird was much enjoyed.</p>

<p> Ierapetra is the southernmost city in Europe (excluding Cyprus) and the fourth-largest city in Crete.<br />
 <br />
In ancient times, the city was called Hierapytna. The earliest remains of the city date back to the fifth century BC. It was an important Dorian city in eastern Crete. The city of Gortyn surpassed Hierapytna's importance as an independent state when Hierapytna was conquered by the Romans in 67 BC. The city was severely damaged during the Arab conquest in 824 but was subsequently rebuilt. It experienced a new period of prosperity during the Venetian period from the 13th to the 17th centuries.<br />
 <br />
<br />
The Archaeological Collection is housed in the building of an Ottoman School that was built in 1899. <br />
