The onset of winter is marked by the arrival of many winter migrants to Nepal. Booted Eagle has also entered Nepal. This is an interesting sps with two distinct color morphs, dark and light. The dark one --can be confused with the resident Black Kite! Happy Birding & Dashain!!!

Wetlands provide habitat, filtering water, and protecting communities from floods and droughts. Yet, they are disappearing three times faster than forests! This #WorldWetlandsDay, let’s commit to restoring, conserving, and valuing these vital ecosystems. 🌎💙

These photos I took in Shuklaphanta National Park (c. 1996), the beginning of my PhD field years. This park was less known, a balanced ecosystem & full of surprises. One morning, I followed a call in distress & found a Chital grabbed by a python. The next day, it was all gone!

2nd instance of a groom wearing bird feathers on a cap....a new Nepali tradition is being set for. Before it becomes a common tradition, we must discourage this new practice. Now bird feathers.. later other animal products? DNPWC Nepal should remain vigilant & proactive😎

Nepal's most important Ramsar site for bird populations, Jagadishpur Reservoir, has motorboat & other disturbances going on. How good it is to declare a site as a Bird Sanctuary, IBA and Ramsar Site and let the biological value be destroyed for recreational sports! Convention on Wetlands
