Everything around the airport is beautifully landscaped and maintained. We start at "Flamingo's Point"; we didn't see flamingos, but we did see, among other things, squacco herons, reef herons, egrets, seagulls and terns. The crows here have a grey neck, they are house crows. Right next to the airport is a very nice golf course. Our guide knows the manager. The friendly man knows where there is no golf, and that's where the birds are. He gives a tour with golf carts. We see, among other things, small green bee-eaters, crested larks and grey francolins.
We go back into the mountains in the afternoon, to the Sayq Plateau. It was more productive for the bird watchers than for the photographer, but the striped bunting and menetries's warbler were nice new species that I could photograph.
