Viv has
been sending a few photographs of birds seen in his local area around Tabuk in
northwest Saudi Arabia. Some of them are still wintering species such as White
Wagtail, Western Marsh Harrier, Black Kite, Red-spotted Bluethroat and Common
Chiffchaff whilst others are migrants such as Eastern Black-eared Wheatear, Pallid
Harrier, Ruff, Turkestan Shrike and Black-headed Wagtail. I am not sure of the
status of White-tailed Lapwing and Common Kestrel in the area as they could be
either winter visitors or passage migrants.
