Oman September 2015

We spent two weeks birding in this friendly and scenic country. First week in the southern Dhofar region where it's mountains attracts the khareef (southwest monsoon) blowing off the Indian Ocean turning the hills green. From our base in Salalah we also journeyed inland to Qatbit in the inner desert. The second week was spent between Masirah Island, Al Hajar Mountains and coastline in the north.
