The Desert Wheatear (Oenanthe deserti) is a small bird species characterized by its distinctive black face mask, white belly, and sandy-brown upperparts. Males have a striking black throat and breast band, while females have a less defined pattern.

The Desert Wheatear is primarily found in arid and semi-arid regions, including deserts, scrublands, and rocky slopes. It is commonly observed in Balochistan and parts of Sindh, especially during winter migrations.
Desert Wheatears are known for their agile and ground-dwelling behavior, often seen foraging for insects and seeds on the desert floor. During breeding season, males establish territories and engage in courtship displays to attract females. They typically nest in rock crevices or burrows. Migration patterns involve movement to and from breeding grounds in Central Asia to wintering areas in Pakistan and beyond.
