1 Oman Fugleiagttagelser i perioden Henning Vikkelsø Rasmussen og Knud-Erik Strange 1

2 Oman er fuldt beskrevet ornitologisk, hvorfor nærværende rapport hovedsagelig kun vil indeholde lokalitetsoversigt og artsliste. Oman er et meget let rejseland og vi havde ingen problemer med befolkningen som faktisk ofte viste sig særdeles nysgerrige og altid venlige. Infrastrukturen er god og en rundrejse kan let foretages med en almindelig bil. Vi valgte dog en 4WD, idet vi ønskede at kunne komme ind i alle områder uden problemer. Vores planlægning af turen var særdeles løs fra starten og vi valgte nærmest lokaliteterne som turen skred frem, hvor lokalitetsguiden gav stor inspiration. Dog var turskitsen fastlagt hjemmefra dvs. start i syd, slut i nord og kørsel gennem ørkenen samt et besøg ude ved kysten. Vi havde på forhånd udelukket havfugleobs, idet tidspunktet på året ikke var optimalt. De 2 første overnatninger i syd var på hotel i Salahah med havudsigt og de 2 sidste overnatninger var hos Siw Rantapää-Buring i hendes penthouselejlighed i Muscat. Øvrige overnatninger var i telt. For besøg på Sunfarms i Salahah og Sohar i nord kræves besøgstilladelser. Dem havde vores lokale kontaktperson Siw sørget for. Siw kan kontaktes via mailadresse: siwoman@omantel.net.om Det skal anføres, at vi ingen problemer havde med overnatning i telt. Dog kan det kraftigt anbefales at spørge de lokale normader i Al Mughsayl om det er ok at slå telt op. Vi mødte tyskere som blev smidt væk men de havde ikke spurgt om lov. Morgen- og aftensmad blev lavet ved teltet og indkøbt lokalt. Frokosten som regel på restaurant og var udmærkede hvilepauser under transporten. Temperaturen lå på mellem 27 og 32 grader om dagen dog en del køligere om natten. Samlet kørsel km via leje af en voldsom Toyota Landcruiser. Samlet turpris per mand dkr.

Dave E. Sargeant, Hanne & Jens Eriksen: Birdwatching Guide to Oman, 2008, Al Roya Guiden er guld værd, idet den har meget præcise beskrivelser på ruterne til de forskellige lokaliteter. Vi fandt ud af, at dens rutebeskrivelser er særdeles nøjagtige. For yderligere oplysninger kan kontaktes: Knud-Erik Strange kes@rfst.dk Henning Vikkelsø Rasmussen hvr@mail.tele.dk 2
