Beschreibung
The road between Efthalou and Skala Sikaminias is a rough dirt road which leads through small valleys and next to steep cliffs while having a great view over the sea strait between Lesvos and Turkey. The valleys are great during migration: many birds, especially during autumn migration, tend to rest in these valleys and bushes can be packed with songbirds, like Sperbergrasmücke, Waldlaubsänger and Ortolan. Other migrants, like Pirol and large flocks of Bienenfresser, are very common. Local breeding species can be found here too, like Weißbart-Grasmücke, Östliche Orpheusgrasmücke and Balkanmeise. Many shrikes and buntings, like Grauortolan and Rotkopfwürger, can be seen on the more drier areas. Chukarhuhn can be seen and heard too.
The shores are great for gulls, like large flocks of resting Mittelmeermöwe. Within these flocks, mostly indiviual, Korallenmöwe can be found.
The road is also great for observing crossing daytime migrants, like raptors, coming from Turkey. Offshore, flocks of Mittelmeer-Sturmtaucher and small numbers of Sepiasturmtaucher can be seen. If you're lucky, Bottlenosed Dolpins show up.

Zugang
The road is easy accessable from both sides: or Efthalou or Skala Sikaminias. It's a dirt road with some steep parts, so a 4x4 is recommended.
