Antikythira is a small island with only 40 people living there. The landscape is dominated by hundreds of goats: for this reason only rank ground vegetation and bushes are able to survive. October is a beautiful month also because a lot of birds migrate en route to Africa. and in some days the skyline was covered by flocks of buntings and finches. Also some raptors pass with a bunch of wondering isolated eagles like one Imperial eagle. Few species of animals remain there all the year long; among theme it is not difficult to observe the Bonelli's eagle spending the days hunting chukars and rabbits. Only three species of reptiles and one bashful snake, the Telescopus fallax, live there.
