Cool bird!

On the 2nd excursion, I saw a weird bird scuttle across the roadway. It was grey and almost quailish, but bigger than any quail I'd ever seen. Well, I think I finally found out what it was: Arabian Partridge! I've been looking and looking through photos, and this is really close. Although I thought it had a dohickey on top of its head. Oh well.

Photo updates!!!

I've updated my photos! There are now 3 sections: Muscat, Salalah, and Excursions. More photos will follow soon, I hope. Also - one of the new photo albums is in the Muscat section (be sure to check out the salad bar at Haffa House Hotel!). If you don't remember the link, e-mail me.
