(delhibirdpix) Snow Partridges (Lerwa lerwa) 3, Uttrakhand, India

Species : Snow Partridge – Lerwa lerwa – Adults

Date : 11th Jan. 2013

Location : Kedarnath Musk Deer Reserve, (Altitude 3680 meters), Uttrakhand, India.

Habitat : High altitude, snow covered scrubs.

Status : Least concern

Remarks : Found eight of these birds feeding in scanty clearings of snow clad, higher reaches of 'The reserve'. One adult seen on left (probably an Alpha Male), stood guard as the rest foraged on the meager resources. The one in the center moved in the feeding zone of the one on the right to get an earful.

Regards,

Gunjan
