- Poor quality pictures of his Plover at Al Rafa's bridge and beach today? Could it be one of Golden Plovers ? Thank you.
- Hello, I'll appreciate your help for this one, seen at the Mangrove hide on 27/11/2019. Thank you.
It sure is. Great record! Where was it?
Se. below for Peter's comment. Pale morph Greater Spotted Eagle
thanks Tommy. It was close to the Al Qudra lake, I walked to some dunes behind and saw it sitting on top of a dune
Well done. Not many records in the UAE each year
Sorry, it's a Greater Spotted Eagle!
It is, Peter. I was tricked by the pale colouring. So, possibly of the fulvescens colour morph?
Ok Peter, thanks for the feedback. I initially thought too it could be a GSE but the white tips on wings confused me. What are the key features made you conclude it was a GSE and not a SE?
Thanks Tommy and Camilo!
I can't describe it, but no doubt for Greater Spotted Eagle!
Just experience, I see them almost daily, over the winter time!
