Birds Around Delhi : Corbett National Park

Birds in Corbett: Long tailed Broadbill
When you first enter the jungles of the Corbett National Park, it is almost difficult to believe that less than 8 hours before you were in the hustle and bustle of Delhi. The smells and sights of the jungle are a treat for the sore Delhi eyes.

During the jeep or the elephant safari, depending on what mode of transport you choose, you are sure to be on the lookout for the majestic Royal Bengal Tiger, but don't forget that the Corbet Park is also famous for its rich avifauna. So keep an eye on the trees - there are many a birds, and the most pretty ones at that. If you are lucky, you may spot the beautiful Long Tailed Broadbill - my favourite amongst the Corbett birds. See picture above, ain't it just lovely?
