With temperatures around 45c in the Wadi I was hoping Sand partridge (known in this area) would come to the pool. Fortunately it worked out and after one hour a couple of adventurous females made their way to the water, the males however, were a little more wary and never quite got there ! If you are interested in the location it can be found here 24°56'31.22"N 56°13'0.01"E Just copy into Google Earth.
As always please check out Pbase for more images from this trip.
