Sultanpur - Dec 2022

A winter is never complete without a trip to Gurgaon's best kept secret - Sultanpur. As always the haul was rich, and the highlight was spotting a Jackal from 30 ft away.

Lesser Whitethroat (Lesser)

Initially mistook this whitethroat for an Asian grey flycatcher. The penny only dropped when I was reviewing the pictures on my laptop. I then also realised that this is the first time I've photographed this bird.

Indian Silverbill (Euodice malabarica)

Scaly-breasted Munia (Lonchura punctulata)

A Juvenile Scaly-breasted Munia.

Common Coot (Fulica atra)

Knob-billed Duck (Sarkidiornis melanotos)
