There are lots of camels around these days.  Herd after herd passes behind and in front of my house in the evenings, all night, and very early in the morning, heading to the wells.  Many wells are dry, so the ones that do have water are busy day and night.  Goats and sheep in the day, camels at night.  I learned the reason for this the other day, too - hyena's won't attack the camels, and if they try, the camels give them a good swift kick.  Goats and sheep are much more vulnerable.  Huh.  Ya learn something new every day!
