Most of my Himalayan Bird Count birding was in a Cold Temperate Forest with Oaks, Horse Chestnut, Indian Laurel, Rhododendrons, .

The central focus was around Mesar Kund , a forest pond.

The correct local name is Mesar Kund, long story about the that I will share soon. But this name is being changed to suit dominant cultural trends.

9th May 26 was Endemic Bird day & also Himalayan Bird Count Day

Normally our group would have gone crazy - with birding events in 3 or 4 locations. This year subdued - people on assignment & in different locations. So took the opportunity to slow walk through a village forest
