Bird Watching
Wadi
Lahami Villageis also situated next to a protected mangrove area which
boasts one of the best areas for birding ("bird watching") along the
Red Sea coast. Many waders and shore birds roost and nest close by the
mangrove swamps. These include the white heron, night heron, striated
heron an sometimes the spoonbill. The sooty falcon is a possible
visitor in the summer, and of course not to forget the magnificent
ospreys which are nesting here. In summer, the white-eyed gull can
easily be seen, as well as the white-cheeked and the Caspian tern. The
gull is special as its breeding range is restricted to the Red Sea.
In fall and spring thousands of small birds like swallows, stone chats,
pipits, wagtails and kingfisher can be seen.
Accommodation: all-inclusive board in tent, Royal
Tent or chalet.
