Nature always bounces back

Flamingo

I have to thank Thanassis Fadakis for showing me this wonderful flamingo in the first place. He photographed the bird and I saw it on his Facebook page and after that I went myself and had a look. I was not sure I would find it still there but it was. I approached it quietly but it kept dipping his/her head in the water and drinking/eating.
I was in awe.

The flamingo is where the former biotope is just behind/next the town beach. A lot of work has been going on the last few months. A part of the entrance/exit to the harbor was repaired and stone walls were built.

It meant that the biotope was destroyed but sweet water still flows onto the beach and plants/bushes started growing there again. And this beautiful bird found a place to eat, to rest and simply to be.

Nature always bounces back. Fortunately!!
