Introduction

The point  of  bird watching is not the actual seeing of the birds, but the cultivation of patience.

OVERVIEW

The point  of  bird watching is not the actual seeing of the birds, but the cultivation of patience. Of course, each time we set out, there’s a certain amount of expectation we’ll see something, maybe even a species we’ve never seen before, and that it will fill us with light. But even if we don’t see anything remarkable – and sometimes that happens – we come home filled with light anyway.” 

Jibhi offers a very diverse base for birding enthusiast, habitats varying from water bodies, dense forest to open alpine meadows you can easily spot 25-30 different species of native and migratory birds, The common birds around Jibhi  area are; yellow bailed magpie, tree pie, brown dipper, red star, tits (at least three different types) finhes, fork tail, bulbul, dove, pigeon, drongos, jungle fowls, Crested Kingfisher, Blue Whistling Thrush, White-crested Kaleej, Himalayan Griffon vulture, etc.
