I was driving from Sharjah to Dubai and saw a large open space that is usually an impromptu cricket pitch but it was flooded and had become a bit of a bird sanctuary. There are a couple of Grey Herons and a number of other birds that I think are Armenian Gulls, Yellow-Legged Gulls, Great Black-headed Gulls, and a few Black-winged Stilts. They are all wintering here because the weather is just so great - about 30C during the day.
I took these with my new camera, and only later realized that I had a digital zoom that would have been incredibly useful but not so much when I was sitting in Dubai Mall having a cup of coffee and reading the camera manual.
