Bird Watching Tour

Cranes, storks, raptors and colourful residents

About this experience

The wetlands, scrub and farmland around Jodhpur are rich in birdlife, and in winter they are joined by visitors from Central Asia - most famously the Demoiselle cranes that gather in their thousands in the region.

Go out with binoculars and a camera to look for painted storks and woolly-necked storks, birds of prey perched on desert trees, and bright resident species such as rollers and woodpeckers. Our own leafy gardens are a good place to start, too.
