Sam Bay

Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary , Dubai , United Arab Emirates , is a wetland reserve renowned for attracting migratory birds in large numbers . The wetlands have large numbers of birds , most interestingly the Greater Flamingo which fascinates me a lot . We have to do our best to encourage the birds ’ return and nest-making . by stopping vehicles and stray dogs going into the area and feeding them twice a day . If the flamingos arent satisfied with the deal at Ras Al Khor , they ’ d no doubt be making a speedy departure
