I was driving through Morocco, it was Spring, I saw a farmer ploughing a field, using a horse-drawn plough, not unusual BUT the horse was a glorious Arabian mare. I stopped the car, sat and watched, after a few minutes I got out of the car and opened the cooler I had in the car and took out a bottle of flavoured water and poured myself a drink. As the farmer ploughed closer I yelled out, holding up a glass, I only speak English, he didn’t speak English. We had a drink together and a long conversation, I admired his horse, he loved that horse.
Morocco is indeed such a beautiful country and the people are very welcoming and helpful. We have actually just returned from a second trip to Morocco and we were fortunate to film some of the beautiful Berber Horses in the northern part of the country. Hopefully we will be able to put together another film which will include those beautiful animals. Thank you for sharing your experience and for stopping by. 😊❤
Wow, so GREAT, a magnificent, fantastically beautiful nature-film. My heartfelt thanks my dear friends Atif and Rebekah ... Hugs and all the best from Switzerland, your friend Hans-Peter
Thank you so very much for the link to this wonderful video and the link to the blog. We are pleased to have organised your trip and are delighted that you had such a wonderful trip and exploration of wildlife in southern Morocco.
Thank you so much! We filmed at a lot of different places. Most of the scenes are from the Palm groves around Zagora, foothills of the Atlas Mountains, Todra Gorge, Dades Gorges, Skoura & Merzouga which is the Sahara. 😊❤
Thank you so much for the encouraging comment. Unfortunately the Barbary lions were declared as extinct in the wild and the Barbary Leopards are very rare and difficult to film. However, fingers crossed one day we can return to Morocco and try and film them. 😊❤
Thanks for your comment - indeed, Morocco was once an even more wildlife rich country. However, there are now fantastic wildlife re-introduction programmes in the country (such as for the Addax), so fingers crossed for more in the future!
