Many Indian endemics and migratory birds choose Gujarat as their wintering base, attracting birdwatchers from all over the world each year. The variety of bird habitats in Gujarat, a coastal state in western India, is what makes birding there unique. The Rann of Kutch, a huge expanse of marshy, salt-crusted flatland in northwest Gujarat, is home to a variety of ecosystems, including mangroves, scrub woods, deserts, wetlands, and grasslands. The Kathiawar-Gir dry deciduous forests, which are located to the east, are home to a vast variety of species and birds. The Western Ghats' verdant highlands are to the south. Up to 611 different species of birds, both migratory and resident, can be found in Gujarat's numerous rivers, reservoirs, lakes, forests, national parks, and wildlife sanctuaries. To provide you unique views of the area's avian treasures, our Gujarat birding tour visits the top birding destinations in Gujarat. We possess the skills, knowledge, and experience to provide you with unique bird viewing experiences, including seeing the Great Indian Bustard and MacQueen's Bustard (a winter visitor) at the same location. We put you on the trails and birding areas that offer unique views of stunning birds such as the Short-eared Owl, Blossom-headed Parakeet, Asian Paradise Flycatcher, Purple Swamphen, Black-hooded Oriole, Coppersmith Barbet, Chestnut-bellied Sandgrouse, and Pheasant-Tailed Jacana. Thousands of Demoiselle Cranes, Common Cranes, Lesser Flamingos, and several kinds of ducks, pelicans, and waterfowl can be seen during our birdwatching vacation in Gujarat. You have a high chance of seeing the quiet White-naped Tit, the elusive Stoliczka's Bushchat, and the charming Indian Skimmer on our birding excursion in Gujarat.
