Whilst birding Dhahran Waste Water Lake there was very little to be seen. The hight of the summer, when only breeding birds and summer visitors are present is always slow. I did see six Grey Herons and the same number of Black-crowned Night Herons sitting on the bank of the drying up lake or in the nearby dead trees. A single Purple Heron flew off at first light and a Western Great Egret was hiding in the reeds. The only other birds seen on the lake were Little Grebe, Eurasian Coot and Black-winged Stilt. The scrub around the pond was devoid of birds with only White-cheeked Bulbul seen. Autumn migration should start soon and I am looking forward to seeing a few more species.
