Birds in Aurangabad

 

Here are a few other photos from Aurangabad

 

During my visit to Aurangabad late last year, I managed to take some time out to roam around the place to try my luck on spotting some birds.

 

Though it was a family trip and most of the time was spent in travelling to popular sight seeing and tourist places, I sneaked around to near by parks to check on the habitat. Though the park was relatively small, there was no dearth in birds.

 

Since I was able to go out for bird watching most in evenings only, I was not able to photograph all the birds due to bad light. But whenever I ventured out in the early morning, I managed to capture a few of them through my lens.

 

Here is the list of birds that I spotted in and around Aurangabad, in whatever limited time I had.

Even in the short span of time I had, I was surprised to have spotted so many birds. I am sure with dedicated time, much more of these beauties can be spotted.
