Went to Sharm again for the 5th year running. This was for a wedding but did some birding as well. Had a few shocks so here is my report for my trip.

It worked for me after getting some additional download from Microsoft. That x at the end of the doc was a problem.

Interesting to compare with mine about a month earlier:

Same paucity of small birds in the desert. Was even more pronounced in our case, but I'm sure it must have been a bit less hot now.

And the Sooty Falcon may have been at the same spot. Also relatively tame for a raptor [see my avatar ].
