Located between Agra and Jaipur, the Keoladeo Ghana National Park in Bharatpur is Asia`s most spectacular bird sanctuary. Its 29 square kilometres of lakes and marsh-lands, woodland and scrub provide a home, permanent or seasonal, for well over 300 species of birds. Some storks, cranes and smaller birds are winter migrants from Siberia, Central Asia or Europe; others are permanent residents or local migrants from among the 1,200 species identified in the subcontinent. In this book, vivid descriptions of selected birds are supplemented with photographs, a map and checklist.
