There are apparently 12 different snake species on the island of Lesvos, but only one of them is venomous. The one in the photo is harmless.

Actually more two-building than one-clue. That’s the Washington Monument playing games with the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History
This is one of the many fish tavernas along the beachfront of Skala Eresou in the West of the island. Even if you are not able to recall its name – Karavogiannos – you will remember that it is (very) green.
The wetlands at the top of the Gulf of Kalloni are an important staging post for many migratory birds. Some, including hundreds of flamingos, have chosen to give up their itinerant lifestyle and made the island their home.
This little seaside village has a surprising number of tavernas, many of them right at the beach front. The volcanic nature of the area is apparent in the grey colour of the sand.
Founded in 1526, this monastery is the largest and most important on the island. The photo shows an old olive oil storage room. There is a museum here, too, with a particularly interesting display of old documents and manuscripts.
