Migration back as spring ends
KUWAIT CITY, May 15: Season of Kuwait is now in a transition period changing from spring to warm spring and soon will be entering the summer. And as usual a huge number of migratory birds are passing through the State of Kuwait these days.
Birds which breed in parts of Europe and Asia are making their way from the wintering grounds of Africa towards Europe and through Kuwait passes one of the main migratory route known as the Eastern flyway which birds use for journey.
At the end of this return migration birds will reach their breeding grounds and will give rise to the next generation of avian marvels.
