Shocking images of hundreds of dead birds spotted on the coastal road of Nafplio – Nea Kios, at the height of the old factory “Pelargos” in Argolida, at noon on Thursday 14 November.
According to the website, argolikeseidhseis.gr, the birds were spotted by passers-by in the area. Some, in fact, were still alive and were gradually dying.
