29/11/2014 at Zour ridge and Jahra Pool Reserve

by · Published · Updated

I visited these two sites today with Jennifer Baran. At Al Zour ridge we saw Red-tailed Wheatear. Jahra Pool Reserve is always interesting. Today we were locally exited of Greenfinch (Second record for Kuwait if accepted by KORC) and Brambling (Rare winter visitor). Greenfinch was found by Mohammed Khorsid and Brambling was told us by  Hamoud Al Shayji.
