Some more pictures that have been bugging me.

Here's a few more bug pictures from Friday's outing to a farm in Bahrain.


I'm told the above is a Plain Tiger.


This is a lime butterfly, below it's laying eggs.

Funny...I was in Bahrain and all I saw for a year was dust and blowing sand. The farms we saw had pretty bad smelling camels and other fasrm animals typically in sad shape, too. Where was this?

Nice pics. Irrigation is an amazing thing. :)

The farm is on the coast, to the south of the Saudi/Bahrain causeway, just through Jasra. They grow crops for chicken feed (what I mean is they grow crops to turn into food for chickens).

I wish.

Still it's something to do when I retire, which will be sometime in the next five years.
