Black winged stilt in Al Qurum Park, Muscat
Qurum Beach Hotel in Muscat. Possibly the oddest place I've ever laid my head. Odd nooks and crannies, curtains hung in the corridor for no particular reason. Interactions with the pleasant, English-challenged room service staff go something like this: "Madam, so sorry club sandwich is not coming. We are not having eggs. (Club sandwich with eggs???) Here is coming vegetable sandwich" Which, oddly enough, was cucumbers and tomatoes topped with a fried egg! Sultan Qaboos smiles benevolently at all who enter.

Early morning in the mountains searching for eagles and other raptors.
