India - Keoloda Bird Sanctuary

At one point this must gave been an amazing place. In the days of the last Maharajah wealthy people from all over the world travelled here to hunt and shoot water foal. After many years of draught and not many funds to maintain the place it has pretty much dried up and hardly any migrating birds stop here to wait for spring anymore. Really said ....




One of the few large birds we saw .... grey ???? I am definitely not a twitcher (British for bird watcher) as you can tell by my vast knowledge.





"Kitsch photo" .... for lack of other interesting objects I took about 20 sunset shots :-)




A group of deer suddenly came to the water front to drink it was interesting to watch, especially when to male deer got in a little fight over the territory.





One of the many Parakeets, they were everywhere.
