Thick-billed Lark at Atlas Mountains

The rugged expanse of Morocco's Atlas Mountains, running from the Atlantic coast eastward toward the Algerian border, marks the divide between the Mediterranean-influenced north and the pre-Saharan landscapes beyond, and it's here that photographers can seek out the Thick-billed Lark. May offers a favourable window for encountering this species against the mountains' stark, open terrain. Those joining the Fennec Foxes & other Moroccan Wildlife holiday will have the chance to search for it as part of a broader exploration of this varied region. Patience and a good eye for open, rocky ground will serve photographers well when working this species into their portfolio.
