The Kumaon range in the Himalayas is home to rich flora and fauna. Sighting beautiful birds here is a common affair.
For ardent bird watchers, the areas of Sattal (20km away) and Pangot (approx 50km away) are a haven to sight these birds. One can avail the services of professional guides to sight & know them in detail. The Himalayan Bulbul, The Himalayan Flycatchers, The Himalayan Quail are some which can be sighted in abundance across the region.
While a camera would make your date with these birds an eventful one, you may want to bring binoculars to sight them in full glory.
