My local patch is known as the Dubai Pivot Fields and it's about 15 minutes drive from home. It's about half a square mile of irrigated field in the desert but the grass is short (for turf) and long (for camel fodder). It also has a ditch with reeds running through it, a tree line around the fenced perimeter and there is a lake about half a mile away so there can be a few fly overs. Sometimes after rain the fields get waterlogged with large areas of standing water.
Guaranteed birds on any day of the year are house sparrow, laughing dove, eurasian collared dove, white-tailed plover, red-wattled plover, hoopoe, bank mynah, common mynah, indian roller, grey francolin, cattle egret, white-cheeked bulbul and crested lark.
