Bar-tailed Lark at Saharan Desert
The Saharan Desert's fringes in southeastern Morocco, where the Atlas Mountains give way to stony hamada plains, wind-sculpted dunes, and scattered acacia scrub, offer a fitting stage for photographing the Bar-tailed Lark against this stark, sun-bleached landscape. This transitional edge of the world's largest hot desert rewards patience, with the pale plumage of the lark blending seamlessly into the sand and gravel underfoot. Photographers joining the Fennec Foxes & other Moroccan Wildlife holiday, typically run in May, will find this terrain well suited to capturing the species in its element, using the open plains and dune fields to frame images that convey the sheer scale of the desert setting.
