The first group of birds that we came across when we reached Okhla Bird Sanctuary were a couple of warblers. Small yet they traveled a lot to reach here. After entering we came across a few white breasted waterhens andslowly we were given the basic idea of how you do bird watching some using eyes and some using ears. Another basic knowledge that we got was to differentiate between a kite and a Marsh harrier. From the watch tower we got a nice view of the wet land and birds on it. A fleet of greylag geese flew past us and we saw painted storks, also grey heron. Lots of birds around and it is really great to have someone along with you who knows about it. Eco trail was both visually enriching and informative. My favorite moment was to catch a glimpse of crested serpent eagle juvenile. Thank you World Wildlife Fund for this opportunity.
