The middle
of summer is the slowest time for birdwatching in Saudi Arabia but it is always
worth going out and seeing what you can see and different things or unusual occurrences
can occur at any time of year. Jubail ha many reed bed areas that hold a number
of breeding warblers with the commonest birds being Indian (Clamorous) Reed
Warbler, Eurasian (Caspian) Reed Warbler and Graceful Prinia. I managed to photograph all these species recently on a trip there and although all three
are common breeding species they are not so easy to photograph. Eurasian
(Caspian) Reed Warbler is the most difficult to photograph so I was quite
please with my result shown below.
