A Day Birding in Qatar | Birding in Qatar
August 21st, 2025 Nick My annual migration between Thailand and UK has not only seen the cost of direct flights rise dramatically but I have grown very tired of sitting on a plane for twelve hours, if only I was able to make the journey under self-powered flight like a Bar-tailed Godwit!

Mountain Birding from Chimgan | Birding in Uzbekistan
