Asiatic wild ass - not difficult to find here but tough to get in an interesting pose. I quite like this shot but feel an awful compulsion to start writing low-grade humorous captions for it.
The only new mammal for me on the trip; at last an Indian wolf. With fewer than 3000 remaining, an encounter is always going to be exciting.
Indian courser - one of the best birds in India.
Cream-coloured courser - present in small numbers this winter in the Little Rann.
Sykes's nightjar gave us the runaround this year, none seen on the first night drive and only three on the second.
Desert warbler
We stayed once again with Dhanraj Malik at Desert Coursers, it is the best place to stay if you want to see the wildlife of the Little Rann of Kutch and one of my favourite places to stay in the world.
