Khawr Filim sits within the Barr Al Hikman area of Al Wusta, one of the most important shorebird sites in the Middle East. Crab-plovers, greater flamingos and terek sandpipers gather here in large numbers, and its mangroves shelter the kalbaensis race of Collared Kingfisher along with the occasional Indian White-eye. Oman's first Grey-tailed Tattler was recorded here in 2023, and birders find the richest activity from late August to November and again from February to May.
