Birding in August 2019. Mount Abu
The first rainbow for this year 2019
The overcast sky and hazy weather on Mount Abu in August are undoubtedly depressing for birders at this time of year. The gloomy weather is great for the offspring of a variety of animals since it gives an abundance of food. Red Spurfowl, Red-wattled Lapwing, Ashy Prinia, Green Avadavat, Spot-breasted Fantail, Brahminy Starling, and White-breasted Waterhen, as well as immature birds, abound.
Poor light shooting circumstances test the die-hard birder for most of August...Fine rain and hazy circumstances wet and slippery forest walkways challenge birders' shooting skills. During this time, I went birding and displayed my tiny bird collection.
