Birds of Mount Abu Birds in July 2019 mountabubirds.blogspot.com

Birding in July 2019. Mount Abu

From overcast skies, green valleys and dales to Abu’s magnificent jungle trails make a perfect getaway from the scorching summer of the plains. Birding at this time of the year is not as spectacular as in winter but it offers you a fair share of the local birds. Grey jungle fowls, Red spurfowl and Green Avadavat are some birds to include in your collection. Appreciate my collection of photographs taken during July.
