CER are currently developing bird habitat on Al Sammaliah island. This
habitat includes the construction of artificial wetlands with mangrove
and other halophytic vegetation for migratory birds. Other forms of bird habitat are also
being developed on the island, these include freshwater ponds, artificial nestboxes and
nest platforms for resident bird species such as the Osprey (Pandion haliaetus).
