Our last half morning at
Ramnagar before heading back to the ridiculous Delhi allowed us to pick up a
few new little bits but it started with more excellent views of the White’s Thrush in the garden, bobbing like a Jack Snipe and fanning its tail
as it fed in the leaf litter; there was also Taiga Flycatcher, a little flock
of Olive-backed Pipits, Greenish Warbler and Hume’s Warbler in the garden creating
great wintering bird scenes!
New birds comprised good views of a WESTERN CROWNED
WARBLER feeding with a mixed species
flock down by the river where there were also 3 Grey-winged
Blackbirds (a
male and two females), a smart Brown Shrike (only the second of the trip), a
nice male Eastern Black Redstart, a couple of flyover Pallas’s Fish Eagles
and the usual good array of Wagtails and waders on the river. When we were kicking around the garden
after a little walk around there was a distinctive BLYTH’S LEAF WARBLER with another mixed species flock and a small group of
SCARLET MINIVETS which moved through the canopy.
