Birds of Mount Abu January 2020. mountabubirds.blogspot.com

Birding in January 2020. 

I've tried to cover as many of our winter migrants in the unique area of Abu. Fewer migrants have come this year. I miss seeing the Steppe eagle and the Tawny Eagle that frequented Abu a few years ago. Now that the DUMPS are removed these birds have migrated to other areas. Visited our mini Bharatpur water body in the Oriya area on the 23 and there were around 200 odd birds. Enjoy the collection I have put together.
