Birding in June 2022 Mount Abu

This is the month when birders can observe a multitude of juvenile birds. Seeing these little creatures and the variety of traits their parents put up with is extremely satisfying. The busybodies use diverse tactics to avoid predators who are always praying around 24/7. At this time of year, they have to endure harsh thunderstorms and lashing rain.

Here's a small collection of birds I snapped in June. I hope you find my work pleasing.

Birds at Mount Abu Wildlife Sanctuary in May.

The birding season in May 2022 has been moderate. Our summer has arrived, and there are no lockdown restrictions this year, but multitudes of tourists keep me from birding beyond my backyard. Please accept my apology for my lack of birding in May 2022. Welcome to my site. Mount Abu Birds.
