Insects light trapping


Okay..

I've been taking so many pictures for insects in general for the past two years..but these are the most closest and finest pictures I've ever got.

To be honest , i dont know the scientific name yet , but soon i will get them.and for sure i will write them. , even though if you know what are they , please feel free to tell me.

usually the emirates natural history group make a light trapping day ..( A day where we go to see what kind of insects are in al ain or Oman , and making some observation..to me it's really interesting..)

hope you will like them.
This insect after a while will be a dragonfly

I still dont know the name yet, but its one of the insects that i really like


Another picture of it from the top

Night show at the Al Ain Zoo


This is a collection of my pictures during our trip to the zoo at night.
It's the first time in the middle east (I think) to have night show in the zoo and to open it in the night
It's just was wonderful and for as usual I was exciting about the birds and the snakes , specially the golden eagle , this was the first time for me to see it in real!!
on my opinion it's really a very wonderful idea to make the zoo open in the night, Al Ain zoo is getting more better and better..we are so happy about that.
Leave you with pictures now.
