I did not met many different bird species in today's walk in Pefki, however I was lucky enough to take a picture of a common chifchaf/ Phylloscopus collybita/ Δεντροφυλλοσκόπο while it was standing on an exposed tree branch. At least in my experience these birds normally hide in the inner branches of the trees for safety which makes them harder to take pictures of.
After the chifchaf I spotted a magpie/Pica pica/ καρακάξα who flew into a nearby pine tree. When I went closer to find that magpie, another bird popped out of the pine's foliage. It was a female blackbird /Turdus merula /κοτσύφι and she seemed quite displeased by the intrusion of the magpie in her tree. (she had her tail raised up high while looking at the direction the magpie went at)
Finally I managed to get a close up photo of a male common chaffinch/Fringilla coelebs/σπίνος who was feasting on a piece of bread.
