I am currently in Egypt and today we drove from Safaga (south of Hurghada) across to Luxor. Basically there is virtually no vegitation for the whole drive apart from a very small village 77 km west of Safaga.
Here we stopped due to there being a few trees there and it was a good decision to have made as there were hundreds of warblers plus a Masked Shrike. Most of the warblers were Lesser Whitethroat and Eastern Olivaceous Warblers, with a few Chiffchaff thrown in for good measure but there were two warblers I couldn't work out and below are a few photos of them spread over two postings
This is the first one and the second will be in the next post. I may not answer straight away as the internet is a bit hit and miss over here, plus after tomorrow night we are going to Aswan for two days then two days at Hamada, one at Abel Simbel, two 100 km south of the Suez Tunnel, two at St Catherines and then the last night at Sharm El Sheikh (which is where I started on April 19th.
