MOUNT ABU BIRDS MY PERSONAL COLLECTION

As a nature lover, bird watching has always fascinated me. I’ve been taking pictures of birds since I was in school in Mount Abu, where I learned about the local birds and their nesting habits. I learned to identify birds chiefly by their calls. I’ve been taking pictures in the wild for several years."Explore the diverse bird life of Mt.Abu with my detailed blog post: See the rare species in their NATURAL ENVIRONMENT.

Birds at Mount Abu in May.(2023)

Birds at Mount Abu Wildlife Sanctuary in May.

The birding season in May 2023 was mild. Our summer has arrived, and happily, no forest fires have occurred this year. My deteriorating health and large number of tourists kept me confined to my garden. Please accept my apologies for missing out on birding in May 2023. Hello, and thank you for visiting my website. Birds of Mount Abu.

During May, this exclusive mountaintop station experienced one of the most extreme cold spells in its history. Most resident birds were busy feeding fledglings. Shikras, large-billed crows, and the Daman continued to sustain on the birds around the clock. Here are some pictures I shot during these times. I hope you like them. Have a wonderful day!
