Hello all. Work takes me to Muscat for a couple of days this week, and it seems I may get a few hours to myself at some point, and this is likely to be mid-afternoon onwards. Bins are packed. I've read up and it seems the potential for lifers is enormous for someone who has never done any birding beyond Turkey. So any practical tips on where to go would be greatly appreciated. I'm staying at the Chedi in Ghubra, will have bins but no scope, and will be reliant on foot, taxi or public transport.
Based solely on some info in a general travellers' guide to the city I'm currently thinking of getting a couple of hours in Qurum Natural Park, plus a stroll on the beach either near there, or near the hotel. Can anyone advise me if this is a sensible idea, and if not, what would be a better use of my time ? Thanks in advance.
