The Last Post...

Although currently a shadow of it's former glorious self, it seemed fitting that my last day's birding in the UAE (see Bye from Dubai...) should be spent at my former favourite haunt of Wamm Farms. The "Old Girl" didn't let me down, producing a fine selection of spring migrants as a grand send off. Full checklist here: https://ebird.org/view/checklist/S53620494

Had a wonder around the somewhat barren lakes this afternoon. sad to see all the cover for the more secretive species had been obliterated in a number of the larger lakes. Some 15 Little Grebes seemed very exposed as they huddled together for protection. Gone are the reed warblers of course. Anyway, counted around 20 Kentish Plovers and a dozen Temmincks stint along with a small scattering of Little stints, 4 White Wagtails and of course the lone Spotted Redshank which is always a pleasure to see and photograph a reasonably close quarters.(Photos coming soon)

Shot this bird on 24th January in the morning. Is this a stonechat?
