In Morocco, Spotless (or Unicolored) Starlings replace the ubiquitous European Starlings. They look about the same but lack the white spots in every plumage. As the more common species, Spotless Starlings are also very good at imitating sounds, and the ones living close to the main roads may even reproduce the sounds of truck motors!

Spending new year in the desert is a wonderful experience... and Morocco offers great birds, too! White-crowned Wheatears are a common sight in the desert areas, especially around human settlements!
