Little adventures. I like to leave my windows open. From the seventh floor I can smell the cut grass as the mowers are trimming the luxuriant turf . I cant hear traffic but in the morning but I can hear the hoof beats and powerful respirations of the thoroughbreds in the early morning as they do their breezing workouts. Ah, open windows - open to the world. After our routine 6:30 breakfast I came to get changed for morning chores. Upon entering my room I disturbed a couple of intruders sitting on my carpet. Birds. In Dubai there are total of 458 species of birds, of which fourteen have been introduced by humans and 157 are rare or accidental. Ten species are globally threatened. Before they retreated out the open window, as if they had done this a million times, my brief glimpse suggested they could have been flickers. Little rotters, they were trying to get in again this morning. (To my team mates I think this is an omen. the bird will fly. ;) )
