Long-legged Buzzard in Dhahran – Bird record by Paul Wells
Paul Wells recently found a Long-legged
Buzzard in Dhahran, an unusual occurrence t]for the location. In the Eastern
Province it is a breeding resident, which is thinly distributed in small
numbers. Bird numbers appear to increase in winter so there is either an influx
from elsewhere or birds move from their breeding areas to more favourable
wintering sites. This winter has been a very good one for the species with
birds seen over a wide area of the Eastern Province and is the second good
winter in a row.
