Glad to be back at Corbett after an absence of ten days. It rains odten and is very, very humid, but it is far better than being stuck in the furnace that is Delhi.
A very positive sign here is the constant and very noisy presence of Red-breasted Parakeets (Psittacula alexandri)! When I was left they were very evident on the metalled road to Mohan which is the boundary of the park, but now they are in the resort as well. However, parakeets are not the easiest birds to photograph!
It’s that time of the year again when we hear the crunch of snails underfoot. I must try to find a solution to this and stop the slaughter.
I saw the Little / Striated Heron (Butorides striatus) by the river this morning which is a first. Until the 15th of June it used to be present only in the evenings. Most of my day today has been spent on the computer and I want to try and do some bird watching tomorrow morning. Hopefully the rains would have resulted in some new visitors.
