In the upper country I found a large variety growing wild in the Fiumaras. The Bedouins named it Buamado, but ignored its virtues. This ornament is called Musbgur. A large brown bird with black legs, not unlike the domestic fowl. Owing to the Bedouin prejudice against eating birds, it is found in large coveys all over the country. It has been described by Salt and others.
