Day 6: The Chestnut-bellied Sandgrouse, Male and Female

In the Chestnut-bellied Sandgrouse, the differences between male and female are clear. The male displays more vibrant colors, including a chestnut-brown belly. In contrast, the female, with her more muted tones of brown and beige, is perfectly camouflaged to blend into her surroundings and protect her young.
