Najran farms host winter cattle egret migration

NAJRAN: Farms in Najran and the surrounding green areas of Wadi Najran have seen an influx of cattle egret flocks as part of the annual winter bird migration.

This medium-sized white heron, known for its elegant appearance and long neck, has white feathers, a long, yellow, pointed beak and black or dark gray legs.

Najran’s agricultural landscape, featuring ponds, irrigation canals and wide green spaces, offer a haven during the species’ stopover on the way to warmer climes, with abundant food sources including insects and small amphibians.

Environmental experts say ongoing monitoring in Najran reflects the success of initiatives such as the Saudi Green Initiative, reported the Saudi Press Agency.
