This year has seen a good autumn passage of
Spotted Flycathcers through the Eastern Province with numbers seen from Dhahran
to Jubail. The Spotted Flycatcher is a common passage migrant. Recorded between
mid-March and mid-June but peaking in May in spring and mid-August to late
October in autumn with a peak in September. Birds have been recorded throughout
the Kingdom even in the Empty Quarter. They are likely to turn up almost
anywhere and gardens and parks are favourite places for locating them.
