Week 17, 26 Apr 06 - Tuhla, SAANR and Jahra East Outfall
Brian Foster, Pekka Fagel and I decided to make the 26th April a Big Birding Day for Kuwait, the previous record was 104 species in a day. Weather conditions were favourable today as was migration. We are pleased to announce that a new record of 118 has been posted. Images by Mike Pope
Photography was secondary to listing today, but I still managed to get off some bursts to capture a few birds seen. This Collared Dove seems surprised that I froze it in mid-air |
