Birds of High Atlas Mountains and Marrakesh (1 Viewer)

I am thinking of visiting the Atlas Mountains and Marrakesh in January 2013 and I was wondering what kind of birds can be found there at that time of year?

Thanks

Probably best to repost this in the Information Wanted or Morocco regional subforum. One thing to be aware of is that the Atlas mountains receive quite a bit of snowfall so access to sites such as Oukaimeden may be quite tricky.

From reading trip reports, the Crimson-winged Finches seem to concentrate around the ski-lift in Oukaimeden, while Alpine Accentor and both Chough species seem to occur as well if I remember correctly.

Can't really help with Marrakesh.

Probably all target species can be seen at Oukaimeden at this time of year, but the weather can be difficult (in our standards anyway) with snow, low visibility and cold. You may want to see this trip report from late January 2012 to have an idea about the species observed and the weather conditions: http://reservoirbirds.com/TripReports/RBTR_000020.pdf
