Birdwatching

Migratory birds are the most winter visitors in Rajasthan. During my research study I observed that most of them are Passerines. My study area was restricted to District Kota (Rajasthan), famous as an industrial city of Rajasthan. All bird watchers will be glad to know that Udpuria 30 kms from Kota city has been registered as the breeding colony of Painted Storks rare in Rajasthan. Now efforts are being taken by the local NGO\'s and District authorities to turn this place into a tourist spot.

Association pour la Conservation de la Nature au Rwanda (ACNR), Bird Life partner in Rwanda will join the world for the 2nd time to celebrate the World Migratory Bird Day. The ACNR members, the conservation Governments and Non Governments Organizations will be invited in bird watching activities in a complexes lake of Bugesera. The site harbors a high number of species and population of water birds but a big number of lakes in the region are threatened by sedimentation due to lack of protection of lake sides.

Shorebirdwatching in wetland areas and counting of shorebirds and other bird species.

First Event on the occasion of the World Migratory Bird Day in 2007!

Migratory birds in India have their peak in arrival in the winter season, i.e., October to early April.
Keeping this in mind, RSNH has already organized a 15 days Awareness Program on Migratory Birds in southern Rajasthan in the second half of Januray 2007. Mr. Satya Prakash Mehra (Sr. Project Officer, Bharatpur Field Office, WWF-India, Keoladeo National Park) and Mrs. Sarita Mehra (Secretary, RSNH) were the specialist of the program.

We will propose a conference on climate change and changes in bird behaviour, in particular in the Somme estuary. In a second part of the event, we will give a demonstration of ringing birds (passerines and other species) and we will explain on the field how to study bird migration.

Count the birds in Clallam County! Field parties will spread out through many habitats of Clallam County, to count as many birds as possible from the Olympic Mountains to the Pacific Ocean. You can count a small area, your favorite birding spots, or plan a special route to include all habitats. Fossil-fuel free birding is encouraged!

This event holds the record for the highest number of species seen in one county in one day in Washington State, 193 species in 1999.
