Melanistic Montagu’s Harrier and other Raptors

Melanistic Montagu’s Harrier and other Raptors

October 14, 2014December 23, 2019 Stephen Daly 1 Comment

Here are some of the raptor photos we managed to see with my Swiss group from Arcatour last week. The wind direction swung around to give us moderate to strong Levante (easterlies) for five days and only died down on our last two days.

Jahra Pools Reserve, Kuwait

July 28, 2013December 23, 2019 Michael Pope 1 Comment

Little Ringed Plovers (Charadrius dubius) have remained through the Spring and Summer and are suspected to be […]

Rarities and Early Migrants at Jahra Pools Reserve, Kuwait

July 13, 2013December 23, 2019 Michael Pope 1 Comment

Jahra Pools Reserve (JPR) is a small fenced wetland reserve just off the Arabian Gulf coastline to the north of Kuwait City.

Little Grebe and other recent images

December 12, 2012December 22, 2019 John Wright 1 Comment

Weather has been pretty bad over the past few weeks, and Murphy’s Law has kicked in on those few sunny days when work commitments have prevented me headed out into the field. Nevertheless, I have tried to squeeze in some photography when there was a chance, and the 1D X helps under dim, overcast winter […]
