Whilst birding a valley on the outskirts of Tanoumah near the village of Quraish I came across a few good birds.<\/p>\n

There were plenty of common species such as Laughing Dove and White Spectacled Bulbul, some summer visitors such as Violet-backed Starlings and a few good south-west highland resident species such as Shikra and Palestinian Sunbird. Shikra is a scarce breeding resident of the southwest of Saudi Arabia with a few scattered records of migrants elsewhere.<\/p>\n

Nets were set at one point and Yemen Thrush and Little Rock Thrush trapped.<\/p>\n
