Al Abraq seems to offer almost every time something new. Today we (Rick and myself) saw three rare birds. First one was Yellow-browed Warbler that has probably stayed for a long time there. Second rare bird was European Siskin and third was Short-eared Owl.  We found also two late migrants Spotted Flycatcher and Cuckoo.  On our way back to the city we visited Jahra Farms where we saw male Shikra and Indian Roller.
