Mount Abu birding in December.
We’re almost done in December, with two days left before we make our way into 2022. I spent Christmas with my sister’s family down on the plains. With my niece Cresencia and my friend Mohan, we went birding. Cresencia and Mohan, who are promising photographers, took quite a few of the pictures we took. Even though our stay and merrymaking were a flash in the pan, the birding was exceptional for the short time we were there. Look at what I’ve put together for this place(Abu Road) and the rest of my time spent in Mount Abu.
