Birding since the late 1980s...mid 40s birder. Being out in nature and hearing the morning chorus, seeing how birds interact with their surroundings and go about their lives provides me a greater understanding of the natural environment we live in. With bird photography, every photo is different, which makes seeing the same and different species exciting.

I saw 9 Great Egrets today at Laval. There were some at the end Boul. Levesque Est, and many more along Boul. Milles Isles as per the map. The individual photographed was lucky #13, so I'm assuming they have tagged at least that many in the Post Breeding Dispersal.

Sorry for the poor quality, but this was as close as I could get without flushing the bird. Seen at Al-Awir east of Dubai in the desert.

In a scene that highlights the need for conservation and awareness, the Greater Flamingo flies against the backdrop of the towering metropolis of Dubai. The UAE government should be commended for preserving a vital estuary in the immediate vicinity of one of the world's fastest-growing cities. However the great species of the world are at an ever-increasing risk of disappearance as we push them to their limits.
