    Default Updated Google Earth file

    Hello fans

    Due to overwhelming demand, I have updated the Google Earth file that contains all UAE records to date.
    As usual, the file can be downloaded here:
    http://www.uaebirding.com/birdingsites.html
    Open it in Google Earth.
    Click on a site-name of your choice, and a full species list for that site appears
    Try Hili Oasis; only 8 species recorded, but 3 of them are pretty awesome.

    Not only will this file give you the above mentioned species-lists, it will also clue you in to the correct Site name to use in your reports, as well as the locations of the many UAE birding sites.

    As we say at work; 'Keep discovering'.
