11/3
Morning spent at North Beach which produced excellent views of the second calendar year
Brown Booby that had been wintering at the site. Other than that there wasn’t much migration to be noticed. A total of seven
White-eyed Gulls were seen. Visits to Amram’s Pillars and Ketura Sewage did not produce anything spectacular. An adult
Peregrine was seen just north of Eilat perched in a power mast.
At Ketura we got news of a male
Pied Wheatear at Neot Samadar (Shizzafon) which we ended up twitching. The Kibbutz also held good numbers of Caspian Stonechats.
Birded the afternoon in Kibbutz Lothan were we finally saw a smart male
Namaqua Dove near the Dairy Farm. Other good birds included Pallid Harrier 1 ♂ and Cretzschmar’s Bunting 1 ♂.
The last hours were spent at KM20 Saltpans. A
Greater Sand Plover and a
Richard Pipit were both nice finds. Other birds noted Marsh Sandpiper 3. At dusk we saw the
Licthenstein’s Sandgrouse at KM19 again.
