Whilst biding the Jubail area in early August 2017 I
saw two Spur-winged Lapwing again in the same place where they have been
present since April. The behaviour of the birds being very vocal and calling in
flight as was the case the last time I saw it suggests the bird are breeding. Despite
searching for young birds none were found so confirmation of breeding will have
to wait a little while longer. The species has not been proved to breed in the
Eastern Province yet but hopefully this will change if when we see the young of
this pair.
