I was unable to get a photo of these birds so i apologise for that.
In both the Petra and Wadi Rum areas i sawa bird i can not find in any of my books.
At first i only noticed it singularly but in the early morning it flew around in a small flock of around 20 individuals.
It seemed to have a light body and very dark wings when viewed from below. It was about the size of a european blackbird i reckon.
Its call was a mournful whistle a little bit like a Curlew but higher and stronger.
I know this a long shot but has any one got any ideas??
Cheers
