Jens and Hanne Eriksen \u2013 who run the www.BirdsOman.com<\/a> website \u2013 told us that last weekend they counted a staggering 750 Egyptian vultures in Oman: 640+ at Al Multaqa rubbish dump (near Muscat), and then another 100 at the bearch at Qurayyat later in the day.<\/p>\n

Oman is a stronghold for this globally endangered species, as it holds a sizeable breeding population – including the second most dense breeding population in the world (after Socotra), on Masirah Island, and receiving thousands of Egyptian vultures from Europe and the Western Asia.<\/p>\n

A program of research and conservation of Egyptian vultures has been developed in Oman since 2012 by a partnership that includes the government, NGOs, private consultants and volunteers. \u00a0That work has included surveys of breeding vultures, surveys of rubbish dumps, satellite-tracking of individual birds, and a film.\u00a0You can see some of the results here http:\/\/egyptianvultureoman.blogspot.co.at\/<\/a>. The VCF has been supporting our colleagues in Oman in their efforts.<\/p>\n
