Senegal

Senegal is the most accessible country in the world to find the cryptic Golden Nightjar.
Situated on the Senegal River Delta, the vast Djoudj National Bird Sanctuary hosts impressive numbers of overwintering Palearctic waterfowl along with a nice selection of West African waterbirds. White-faced Whistling Ducks can number in the tens of thousands.
Senegal is one of the best places in Africa to find the incredibly striking Egyptian Plover, so unique that it is placed into its own family.
The peculiar Quail-Plover, actually a buttonquail, is one of the most appealing species we target on this tour. With luck, we’ll find one as it uniquely teeters around in circles feeding.
