Cream-coloured Courser at Saharan Desert

The Cream-coloured Courser haunts the fringes of the Saharan Desert, where southeastern Morocco's stony hamada plains & wind-sculpted dunes take over from the last folds of the Atlas Mountains. Its pale, sand-toned plumage makes it a genuine challenge to pick out against this stark terrain, so patient scanning of open ground & the sparse acacia scrub is essential. Photographers joining the Fennec Foxes & other Moroccan Wildlife holiday in May stand a good chance of encountering this striking desert wader against Morocco's transitional desert landscape.
