Abu Road and Environs Birding January 2021 mountabubirds.blogspot.com.

Birding around the Madhusudhan temple (24.499643, 72.713104) is Exceptional. 

Birding 30 and 31 Jan2021.

On,31 Jan 21 did a spot of backyard birding there are quite a variety of birds in this area because of the proximity of the canal water flowing opposite the house also outside the boundary walls are agriculture fields. On 30 Jan 21. Visited a small grove opposite the Madhusudhan temple (24.499643, 72.713104) on the Revdar road. This grove houses a host of flycatchers, minivets, warblers, cuckoos, owls and parakeets and has a colony of flying foxes living on the tall trees. Enjoy our selection of birds observed and photographed on the last two days of January 2021.
