The best place to see White-eyed and
Sooty Gull in the Kingdom is the fish market at Jizan but the morning we went
it was so bust with people that few birds were around. Luckily, as we moved
south along the coast we saw a small mixed gull flock with a number of both
species present. Also seen were Baltic Gull and Steppe Gull. Waders present
were a small flock of Ruddy Turnstone, European Oystercatcher and several
Bar-tailed Godwits. Plenty of House Crows were flying around and further up the
corniche a Western Osprey was located with many Crab Plover.
