After five hours, a stop for McDonald’s and gas, lots of crappy incidental checklists in eBird, a call from Brooklyn birders saying they didn’t have the bird, and a traffic stop that somehow didn’t result in a speeding ticket, we made it to Conesus Inlet State Wildlife Management Area where we were greeted by a Yellow Warbler.

It is mainly scrub and woodland in a dry area with a mosque and fast food restaurant in the central area. Pay AED10 to get through the control gate and turn right shortly after. Any remaining time can be productively spent at either or both of the hides at Ra’s al-Khor wildlife Sanctuary.

I might have to add the Dallas airport staff to the list of things Buffon was right about. After a pleasant morning with ducks, crisp snow and sunshine, we followed the wildlife trail on our way out. I flew into Denver from Mexico. If birders were as inept finding flying things our life lists would be very short indeed.
