Desert Warbler at Atlas Mountains

The Atlas Mountains form a rugged spine across Morocco, running from the Atlantic coast in the west toward the Algerian border in the east, and it's this divide that makes the range so rewarding for photographers, separating the temperate, Mediterranean-influenced north from the pre-Saharan and desert country beyond. Desert Warbler is among the species associated with these borderlands, and May tends to be the month when sightings are typical. Those joining the Fennec Foxes & other Moroccan Wildlife holiday will find the Atlas Mountains a key location for building a portfolio of the region's varied birdlife, with the mountains' transitional character offering a genuine sense of Morocco's shifting landscapes within a single frame.
