(delhibirdpix) KG-MG-Wetland


"Rain or No Rain We Go" Two Sarus enthusiasts made it  very clear from mail itself  'adventurous are always welcome'. Birding become more enjoyable if one is with so called "Arab Fighter Pilot " and the best Navigator in the group for every new discovery of of IBA in and around NCR, blessed  naturally with a lovely graceful "  White Crown " Yes you guessed correct the one and only "Anand Arya" with his Black Camera matching with white and giving him a graceful  look of "Pied"  His sharp eyes detected 8 Sarus from a distance self and Wingco once thought why he has taken turn just for the sake of Black Ibises. The moment we turned our heads and realised oh yes what our eyes could not see was detected by Anand Arya's long experience and vision. Our happiness doubled when another pair landed.
Total count was 10+2+1=13 . Which was still  3 short of  Anand Arya+Wingco's   = "Sweet Sixteen"  . I stuck -up  soon after entering   my "Teens'  but will soon start gaining if I follow these two Sarus Experts.

At Osprey point our Cookery Classes started in the middle of the fields  where few new experiments were done on  Mango Pulp + Buttermilk(Salted) = ? and Mango Pulp+ Orange Juice (Frozen)= ?    prepared and consumed  gently but  discussed in detail and results are still awaited . Villagers were also participating  very actively and with their own ideas of "Engagement Ceremonies" . As they thought we are discussing marriage proposals in the fields. Isn't it  lovely ? Cookery classes got over with delicious alloo Paranthas,Pooris,Cutlets ( Thanx to Alka my better-half) Will not ad on   the 'in-between sips-and munching' here because we work very hard to do birding.

It was indeed a Great Birding. My sincere thanx to Anand Arya and Wingco for the lovely birding after a long time. Thanks  to "Sanorita" oh am sorry I have mistaken your names it's "SOMARITA" See I have  corrected myself so don't get annoyed , for  bringing very good breakfast for field coockery classes hope you will continue to do so.
I have very week memories so am unable to recall the birds seen. I remember only recent things probably  Soma has reported the birds.
Happy Birding
With Kind Regards
