Here are a few from my Friday outing.

Isabelline shrike


Pin-tailed wydha
An escapee that has done well to survive.  I've seen them before but not with the long tail feathers.

I think he was yawning, bored waiting for me to take his picture.

Most come from Asia, probably Siberia and all points south.  Without finding a bird that's been ringed elsewhere, it's difficult to tell. We do a bit of ringing in Bahrain but the only report back we have had, was for a bridled tern that was found in Mumbai.
