Migratory Ducks our winter visitors are Here.

Every year I look forward to seeing these winter visitors. Several migratory birds go up to this small hill station in Rajasthan. Alpine Swift was here in the second week of September. Some birds at the location include raptors and species like the Long-Tailed Shrike, Sulphur-bellied warbler, Common Chiffchaff, and Common Rose-finch. I’m posting some birds mentioned to enjoy the pleasure of our feathered friend on this auspicious day.
I WISH ALL A PROSPEROUS AND STRESS-FREE DIWALI THIS YEAR FROM THE ABODE OF THE GODS.
