Birds on Dhahran Cricket Field – Dhahran Hills

Whilst birding Dhahran Cricket Field over the last couple of weeks I have seen some quite good birds. A very close Tawny Pipit in a small group of Yellow Wagtails. Yellow Wagtails have been common with up to fifty birds present of a couple of days and this species, Common Myna and European Hoopoe the commonest species on the field. The only waders seen were Ruff, with three birds, Kentish Plover with fifteen birds the highest count and Whimbrel with six birds.
