Dag 3: Het Al Hajar gebergte en de kust

Home Biota: what is it? Animals Plants Mammals Birds Insects NL EN

We start again at the coast, at the Qurum nature park, and along the coast. We see, among other things, Hemprich's Gulls (mainly Black Gulls), Desert Plovers and Indian Plovers (related to our Lapwing). Then we go into the Al Hajar Mountains. There we find the promised Plain Leaf Warbler, Streaked Scrub Warbler and Hume's Wheatear. We end the day with a visit to the coast again.
