The 'V' junction of wadi Dirhur (left)

our 2 day trek back to Hadibo here.

Famous 'dragon blood tree' with vultures
here.
|
'Egyptian Vulture' seems to be present
everywhere in Socotra. It's maybe 50-60cm tall.

The 'V' junction of wadi Dirhur (left)
and wadi Darho. In case of rain, this would be very dangerous place to
camp due to the high water in the wadi !

This might be 'Socotra Starling'.
|
Small fresh water crab was present in
almost all fresh waters, hopefully a good sign.

Up in wadi Dahro. Scant - the highest
mountain range is in distance. Our path took us a bit to the right
(east), where the ridge can be crossed easily.
|
Up in wadi Dahro, we had plenty of water
here in Octobere, seems to be good time to visit Socotra.
