The bird population is expected to flourish with our development as the current state-issued hunting permit over part of the Aphrodite Hills site has been abolished.
The abundant supply of golf course grass and pond water combined with extensive planting of new bushes and trees has resulted in more food and shelter for the local and migrating bird population including nightingales, kingfishers, kestrels, partridges, francolins and owls.
Migrating swans have also been seen on the man-made irrigation lake at Aphrodite Hills. Enhanced planting and extensive areas untouched by development will result in improved conditions for wildlife ranging from toads and frogs to butterflies, hares, hedgehogs and foxes.
