UAE Emirates over Newyear  24 - 025 
   
    
  On way from dubai airport to Sharja, which can be done on foot, there were quite a few  
Wachtlekoenige  at some dusty and sandy parking lictions, between the cars and where they can find some food. 
      
 
Wachtelkoeneig are a bid bigger than Wachteln, whichb geta slo shot in Texas by qualehunters. It happened onec near Abu Dhabi  at its outskirts thata wachtel (quale) took off form my green bed about hal;f an hour when i was restig on some green carpet under the palms. 
  
Quales  are very stupid birds as they seem to have no senses. YOu can practically sleep on them and nothijng will happen. 
      
 
At that same time a big goose, was touching down near the palms at Abu Dhabi outskirts. 
      
 
    Near Sharja corniche you can see 
Seagulls, also variouse spezies and 
Herons here and then. They can be dffered by size, plumage and the bill. The bill cen be in curve, long short or big as with kingfishers. Also leg colors can indicate spezies.  
It was mostly one indian pond heron at Sharja corniche. Which you can also see at goan shores. Same counts for Seagulls and Terns which cover 2000 km in one week. 
               
    
   Turky jan 2025 
       
 The first morning after arrival a big nice   
Adlerbuzzard,  (Birds of Prey) which is hard to differ from other buzzards, it had bright wings and witha dark spot midwing. Most bitds stay over winyter times in south turky as Wagtails, also some variouse Swifts and 
      
 
The Adlerbussard got disturbed by some seagulls. No tourist got to see the Adlerbuzzard, but by my hint, not far from 
  ANTALYAS PORT and pirate port.  
        
 
  
        
I will spare you with pics here cause it is hard to make Birdpics when they are high up in the sky. 
     
 
Skymasters are great birds and you ve now idea about them.    
 
The latter days nomore Adlerbuzzard got seen.
