	Charliesbirdblog: Dubai, UAE 11 July 2006
		Unsurprisingly the sandgrouse didn't stop around and as it shot away again we turned to look at a flock of doves that had fluttered up form the well and was now spread along the border fence and the bushes behind.
		Tommy had said that on a visit a few days before he'd seen about 20 European Turtle Doves - a species that is not supposed to breed in the UAE, but the remarkable 35 (34 more than I'd seen this year so far!) we counted seems to suggest that status needs revising.
		As we scanned through them both Tommy and I came across a darker and larger dove sat amongst the flock: we both turned to each other at the same time and said, "You see that dove on the left - top of the bush behind the fence?".
