Dubai Holiday, Dubai Pivot Fields and Jebel Hafeet, November 25th 2008.

Went on a longer trip, started at the Pivot fields on the outskirts of the city, much quiter here in the morning, than the afternoon of our last visit, waders were around got a picture of a White Tailed Plover, then journeyed to the south of the country, just beyond the town of Al Ain, to the only and very obvious mountain in the area, I knew this to be a good place for Egyptian Vulture, my plan was to drive to the top of the mountain to find the best place, got a few shots on the way, but a running race was taking part up the mountain, so when we reached the top, we realised the best place was further down, but for the safety of the runners the organisers were not letting anyone out of the car park, so all we could do was wait for the runners and the last one came in well after darkness!
