The Last Day of 2010

Day Out: 31st Dec, 2010


As today is the last day of 2010, I wanted to do some birding and see what happens.  I am totally sick and not feeling well at all.  At the end, by 4:00PM, I decided to visit my local patch Mussafah for an hour or so.

Went to Mussafah with Mariam, we were greeted by a Western Marsh Harrier trying to catch a laughing dove from nearly a thousand of them.  I took some shots.  The bird in between me and the sun and the photos were not good at all.

The place was over crowded with people who were fishing.  So not much luck.  Somehow I managed some average shots of Caspian Tern, Slender-billed Gull and Eurasian Curlew.

And thats all for 2010.

Thank you & Good bye 2010 and we will never meet again!!!
