Since fitting this bird with a transmitter, we have received over 1600 high quality locations. A feature of this bird's movements is that it seems to settle into areas for some time, then move on to others. Soon after tagging this bird settled in near Quriyat, then moved south for some time near the Tahwa Landfill. It then moved and spent some time ranging near Ibra. Recently it seems to be spending most of its time in the Wadi Sareen Reserve. Perhaps it has moved to this higher area to try to escape the worst of the summer heat. In the reserve it seems to be spending most of its time in the high cliffs south of Salifah and Siya.
