Birding southern Oman during the Khareef (summer monsoon) was very different to other times of the year. Both Dideric Cuckoo and Grey-headed Kingfisher were exceedingly common and were literally everywhere!. #Oman #omanbirding #zootherabirding #birding #BirdsSeenIn2025 #birds

In between pelagics & land-based seawatching we went looking for Arabian specialities in the nearby hills. The stunning Arabian Grosbeak showed very well indeed! The Dhofar region is THE best area to see this elusive species. #birds #Oman #omanbirding #SpeciesSeenIn2025

During the Khareef (monsoon) season in Dhofar, southern #Oman species such as Grey-headed Kingfishers & Dideric Cuckoos are crazily common. Literally seeing double figures of both species each day!.#omanbirding #birding #NatGeo #jewelofarabia

Textbook views of all the crucial i.d features during our encounter with adult & immature Saunders’s Terns on Masirah Island. #Oman #birding #seabirds.
Great views of Saunders’s Terns on Masirah Island. Just look at the adults white forehead blaze on left. The immature on the right has white secondaries, compared to grey on Little Tern. Oman is THE best place to observe this species! Oman rocks!. #omanbirding #Oman #birding
