Glimpse into Rare Birds of India
Why are they rare? How and where one might see them?
This is originally a presentation prepared for Mysore Nature and Arivu Nature Resource Foundation and presented at Arivu School in Mysore in Kannada on May 26, 2024. This is an english version to reach a greater audience.
It is a talk based on Samanvitha S Rao's birding journey to see, photograph and upload the photos of over 1000 Indian birds to ebird. She shares her insights and experience from this journey on rare birds of India.

BIRDSONG: Grey-sided Bush-warbler
Переглядів 61Рік тому
Grey-sided Bush-warbler (Cettia brunnifrons) calling at Senchal Wildlife Sanctuary in Darjeeling District, North Bengal. Sometimes rains are just perfect for birding. What joy it was to have this otherwise skulking bush-warbler show up just 6 ft from us and sing to it's heart's content, oblivious to our presence. Notice the nasal calls at the end of its song.

    Our family has a 5 acre pond 4 km away from our home in tripura. Every winter some birds come into our pond, stay there and eat fish. We don't allow locals to hunt them. We don't know where exactly they come from but our best guess is they are from Siberia. Nice channel ❤

    Watching this video reminds me of the awe-inspiring time I spent in the Kashmir Great Lakes. The pristine lakes, nestled amidst towering peaks, were like a scene from a dream. I captured countless pictures, each one telling a story of tranquility and natural beauty. Joined Orange Jacket Adventure Team for this trek. Mr Vyashakh, my tour guide made that trip even more enjoyable.

    How to prepare for this trek on the fitness!

    • @SamanvithaRao
      @SamanvithaRao 2 роки тому

      Indiahikes recommendation is as follows: Run at least 5 km in 32 minutes before your trek. Consistency of your workout also matters, so aim to jog 25 km a week or 100 km in a month. It's a minimum mandatory requirement if you wish to trek with us. OR Alternatively, cycle for at least 25 km in 60 minutes. Aim to cycle 125 km a week or 500 km in a month. However, running is better suited for your trek preparation.

    • @SamanvithaRao

      If there is any nearby hilly region, brisk walks there will also help. I mostly trained by walking 10kms a few times a week.
