Gulf News reader Sajan Sadiq has been in Dubai for over a decade. He loves capturing beautiful moments and is still exploring the city every day. He said: "I spotted these flamingos at Ras Al Khor and was intrigued to realise that Dubai is home to these pretty birds that fly 500 to 600 km between habitats with their heads and necks stretched out in the front and their legs trailing behind. They seem to arrive in Dubai in groups and interestingly they are said to have an in-flight speed of 50 to 60 kph (31-37 mph) and travel during the nights."
