Birds of Mount Abu May 2021 mountabubirds.blogspot.com.

Birding during the Second wave of COVID-19 In Raj IN. 


Birding has been low key, our summer is in full swing. The last week of May and our Lockdown is in place. We have had freaky weather with overcast skies and strong winds that thankfully cooled the place down, giving birders respite from the scorching sun. The birds photographed during this phase include our resident Green Munia, fondly called the Haria. Appreciate the collection I've put together.

Birding in the last few days of May 2021.
