In the trunk of the study area, Hijaz Asir highlands rises up to about 3,000 meters in the south near Abha, while at northern boundary of the area near Taif, the elevation is about 1,500 meters (refer to Figure B.1-6 and Figure B.1-7). There is a distinct coastal plain, locally known as Tihama, separated from the hills by an imposing scarp wall that runs parallel to the Red Sea along 700 km in the study area. Toward the east forms the peak of Hijaz Asir highlands, hills peter out further east to the interior, and give way to an extensive plateau covered with lava flow (Harrat) of the area, and very thin veneer rock debris and alluvium over a basalt and crystalline basement, which is frequency outcrop as knolls and low hills.

Oromia is the largest National Regional State of Ethiopia. Here we present the first comprehensive checklist of its birds. A total of 804 bird species has been recorded, 601 of them confirmed (443) or assumed (158) to be breeding birds. At least 561 are all-year residents (and 31 more potentially so), at least 73 are Afrotropical migrants and visitors (and 44 more potentially so), and 184 are Palaearctic migrants and visitors (and eight more potentially so). Three species are endemic to Oromia, 18 to Ethiopia and 43 to the Horn of Africa. 170 Oromia bird species are biome restricted: 57 to the Afrotropical Highlands biome, 95 to the Somali-Masai biome, and 18 to the Sudan-Guinea Savanna biome.

Hazevoet Stefan Fischer & Gérard Deloison Summary Several bird observations, supplementary to the recently published review of the avifauna of the Cape Verde Islands (Hazevoet 1995), were made during visits to the islands in 1995. Three species new to the archipelago were observed, viz. Phalaropus lobatus, Gelochelidon niloticaand Sterna maxima. Also reported here are extensions in time and space of both residents and migrant visitors. These include summer records of several species of waders, herons and Platalealeucorodia, and range extensions of resident breeding species, e.g. the first records of Alaemon alaudipes from the island of Sal. In addition, some new data on breeding seabirds on the islands of Sal and Boavista are presented. INTRODUCTION known to be annual visitors in small numbers.

  • Buckbird Journeys
    BUCKBIRD JOURNEYS YEMEN and SOCOTRA Tuesday 8 – Sunday 18 November 2007 Participants Louise Augustine (LA), Hugh Buck (HB), David Daniels (DD), David Hoddinott (DH), Pearl Jordan (PJ), Werner Suter (WS), David Bradford (DB – Socotra only) This trip was designed to try for all the Southwest Arabia and Socotra endemics in a relatively brief time scale. It also represented an opportunity for regional listers to add an enticing selection of “African” species only entering Asia in Southwest Arabia and a selection of “Asian” species found in Africa rarely outside of Socotra. That the trip was successful on all counts is a tribute to Yousuf Mohageb (YM) of Arabian Eco- Tours in Sana’a who designed, with HB, the itinerary, accompanied us throughout Yemen and knew all the best birding spots, Ali his redoubtable co-driver and Ahmed Saeid Suliman (AS) on Socotra whose knowledge and love of all things on his island home is second to none. Our multinational group (three Americans, two Brits, a South African and a Swiss) kept to the pace admirably, provided exceptional spotting skills and, in WS, some wonderful photographic documentation and memories. Day by Day Thursday 8 November HB, DD and DH meet up at Dubai International Airport for the short Emirates Airlines flight to Sana’a where they are met by YM, Ali in traditional Yemeni costume and LA and PJ who have arrived the previous evening. Under the high bright sun, which will be the norm for the next 10 days, we traverse Sana’a’s sprawling outskirts to the Funduk Arabia Felix, an interesting hotel made up a several old traditional houses right at the edge of the historic and UNESCO rated old town.

Throughout history sparrows have been considered the harbinger of good or bad luck. They are referred to in many works of ancient literature and religious texts around the world. The ancient Egyptians used the sparrow symbol in their hieroglyphs to express evil tidings, the ancient Greeks associated it with Aphrodite, the goddess of love as a lustful messenger, and Jesus used sparrows as an example of divine providence in the Gospel of Matthew.

  • AERC Wplist July 2015
    AERC Western Palearctic list, July 2015 About the list: 1) The limits of the Western Palearctic region follow for convenience the limits defined in the “Birds of the Western Palearctic” (BWP) series (Oxford University Press). 2) The AERC WP list follows the systematics of Voous (1973; 1977a; 1977b) modified by the changes listed in the AERC TAC systematic recommendations published online on the AERC web site. For species not in Voous (a few introduced or accidental species) the default systematics is the IOC world bird list. 3) Only species either admitted into an "official" national list (for countries with a national avifaunistic commission or national rarities committee) or whose occurrence in the WP has been published in detail (description or photo and circumstances allowing review of the evidence, usually in a journal) have been admitted on the list. Category D species have not been admitted. 4) The information in the "remarks" column is by no mean exhaustive. It is aimed at providing some supporting information for the species whose status on the WP list is less well known than average. This is obviously a subjective criterion.

  • The Birds of the Highlands of South-West Saudi Arabia and Adjacent Parts of the Tihama: July 2010 (Abba Survey 42)
    THE BIRDS OF THE HIGHLANDS OF SOUTH-WEST SAUDI ARABIA AND ADJACENT PARTS OF THE TIHAMA: JULY 2010 (ABBA SURVEY 42) by Michael C. Jennings, Amar R. H. Al-Momen and Jabr S. Y. Haresi December 2010 THE BIRDS OF THE HIGHLANDS OF SOUTH-WEST SAUDI ARABIA AND ADJACENT PARTS OF THE TIHAMA: JULY 2010 (ABBA SURVEY 42) by Michael C. Jennings1, Amar R. H. Al-Momen2 and Jabr S. Y. Haresi2 December 2010 SUMMARY The objective of the survey was to compare habitats and bird life in the Asir region, particularly Jebal Souda and the Raydah escarpment protected area of the Saudi Wildlife Commission, and adjacent regions of the tihama, with those observed in July 1987 (Jennings, et al., 1988). The two surveys were approximately the same length and equal amounts of time were spent in the highlands and on the tihama. A number of walked censuses were carried out during 2010 on Jebal Souda, using the same methodology as walked censuses in 1987, and the results are compared. Broadly speaking the comparison of censuses revealed that in 2010 there were less birds and reduced diversity on the Jebal Souda plateau, compared to 1987. However in the Raydah reserve the estimates of breeding bird populations compiled in the mid 1990s was little changed as far as could be assessed in 2010. The highland region of south-west Saudi Arabia, especially Jebal Souda, has been much developed since the 1987 survey and is now an important internal recreation and resort area. This has lead to a reduction in the region’s importance for terraced agriculture.
