Really tricky photographing this Wren (Troglodytes troglodytes) in low sun in the Lye Valley a couple of days ago, since whenever it came into the open, it chose a background almost exactly the same colour as itself!

There were several small flocks of Little Stints - one looked as if just arrived. And plenty of Ruff.
One can never have too many Black-winged Stilts.

Greeted at the wonderful @RSCNJordan Aqaba Bird Observatory by what seems to be a Rough-legged Buzzard. Was bid farewell by a female Marsh Harrier. Here follows some more rubbish photos taken in between, to add species to #BirdsSeenIn2021 #Jordan #AqabaBirdObservatory @_osme

On Aqaba South Beach, the few trees - date palms, acacias etc - are heaving with warblers and other migrants. Here is a Central Asian Mountain Lesser Whitethroat (Sylvia curruca althaea), Blackcap & a delightful Bluethroat. Also a couple of House Crows.

Eurasian Coot @FeynanEcolodge, Dana, where @RSCNJordan released 2 Booted Eagles back into wild, following rehabilitation after seizure from illegal bird trappers. Look at those boots!
Such crimes will be rarer in Middle East thanks to @birdlife_me workshop.
