A great week exploring Morocco in the safe hands of Gayuin Birding Tours run by Brahim and his brother Hamid who was our excellent guide and driver. From the Atlas mountains to the Sahara Morocco exceeded all expectations in birds and scenery. Great company with two French birders Alain and Pascal and Joe, Mark and Hamid in the other van. We had great birds and plenty of laughs with a few beers and Moroccan wine in the evening. A total of 118 species were seen including 24 lifers.
