Egyptian nightjar

📍Dubai, UAE

The Egyptian nightjar (Caprimulgus aegyptius) is a medium-small nightjar which occurs in south west Asia and north Africa and winters in tropical Africa. This is a fairly common species with a wide distribution which faces no obvious threats apart from habitat destruction, so the International Union for Conservation of Nature has rated its conservation status as being of “least concern”.

ഈജിപ്ഷ്യൻ നൈറ്റ്ജാർ (രാച്ചുക്ക്) ഒരു ഇടത്തരം വലിപ്പമുള്ള നൈറ്റ്ജാർ ആണ്, ഇത് തെക്ക് പടിഞ്ഞാറൻ ഏഷ്യയിലും വടക്കേ ആഫ്രിക്കയിലും ശൈത്യകാലത്തും ഉഷ്ണമേഖലാ ആഫ്രിക്കയിൽ കാണപ്പെടുന്നു. ആവാസവ്യവസ്ഥയുടെ നാശമല്ലാതെ വ്യക്തമായ ഭീഷണികളൊന്നും നേരിടുന്ന വിശാലമായ വിതരണമുള്ള ഇത് വളരെ സാധാരണമായ ഒരു ഇനമാണ്, അതിനാൽ ഇന്റർനാഷണൽ യൂണിയൻ ഫോർ കൺസർവേഷൻ ഓഫ് നേച്ചർ അതിന്റെ സംരക്ഷണ പദവിയെ “ഏറ്റവും കുറഞ്ഞ ആശങ്ക” ഉള്ളതായി വിലയിരുത്തിയിരിക്കുന്നു.

Egyptian vulture

📍Abu Dhabi, UAE

This rare bird has a bald yellow head and throat with a white collar, giving it the nickname pharaoh’s chicken. Its preferred habitat is mountains and rocky escarpments. When the egyptian vulture is a juvenile, its legs are grey – but, as an adult, they change to pink.

Adult (Image 1) – clean white body, striking contrast with dark wings, and fully yellow face — classic adult look.

Subadult (Image 2) – increasing white in body and wings, but still showing some darker coverts.

Juvenile (Image 3) – entirely dark brown with no white; typical of birds in their first year.

Pharaoh eagle owl

📍Al Qudra Desert, Dubai UAE

The Pharaoh Eagle Owl is a nocturnal bird that nests on cliffs but also in old tree nests of ravens. It has orangey-yellow eyes, short ear tufts and cat-like face patterns. They are silent hunters as their flight doesn’t make any sound, even if they are close to their prey due to slightly specialized wing feathers. They are monogamous- they pair up for life.
