Ardea cinerea
This fellow stayed around for about 10 minutes while swallowing a big fish before he took off. Grey herons are commonly spotted in urban environments.
Though widely distributed, the range of this species seems to be just north of Qatar (and in addition southern Europe, Africa and south-east Asia) where it migrates to during the winter seasons.
