Hello all.
never did this before, but since i got 3 lifers already here in my city Jeddah, which is phenomenal for me, as my last lifer was the Tminick stint back in 2022, decided to start this list, it will include all the birds i see in my garden and most to my usual birding spots, as well as those i get when i do trips around Jeddah and if i visited other cites in my country.
