Dubai Pivot Fields 22.10.10

Not had too much time to get out this weekend,  arrived back late from Kuwait on Thursday evening,  then attended a party last night which sort of limited my options today !  :-)

Anyway managed a few hours yesterday afternoon at the Pivot Fields.  Not too much of note, however a nice mixture of Pipits including Tawny, Richard's and Red-Throated !  Quite a collection of Yellow, Citrine and White Wagtails also present.   The weather is starting to improve each week, so now looking forward to spending more 'comfortable' hours outdoors now temperatures are down to the low 30's.   Here are a some of the pics captured yesterday.  I have also included a mall piece of video of one of the Red-Throated Pipits.
