This was a whirlwind tour with my good friend Richard Headford to recce the country in order to add this
superb birding venue to the growing list of destinations for Wingspan Bird Tours. The trip was essentially
taken in order to seek out routes, hotels and certain birding sites, we traced a planned route in 7-days, my
future tours will take the same route but over a longer 10 day period and will include a full day’s 4-wheel
excursion into the desert to locate Houbara Bustard using a local, reliable guide.
