Uranots

The Uranots area incorporates almost the entire set of landscape habitats which occur in the eco-zone between semi desert and mountain steppe. Nearly vertical rocky outcrops, open juniper woodlands, stunted deciduous trees, shrubby thickets and hillsides covered with scanty grass vegetation and sparse growths of Astragalus attract bird species like Griffon Vultures and Lammergeiers, Chukars, nuthatches, larks, shrikes and wheatears with a recently discovered Red-tailed Wheatear.
