..You can compare the previous year list here http://wildlifecams2009.blogspot.com/2009/08/1.html
Syrian Woodpecker - Dendrocopos syriacus
This is the second sighting this year ...I hope the third will be more lucky and I will have the chance to take a better photo

Chaffinch- Fringilla coelebs (male)
...He is very shy ...Although he comes every evening at this cable and sings for sometime he flies away when he realizes any movement around...I couldn't approach enough to take a better photo ...
Spotted Flycatcher- Muscicapa striata
Playing hide and seek in the olive trees ....I think he is young bird
Goldfinches' nest
Can you see the nest among the needles and the cones ...At least you can see her head ...It couldn't be better protected and hidden
