Bird Checklist

After Feredunkenar in Iran, Bharatpur was once the last known wintering ground for the highly endangered central population of the Siberian Crane. Wintergrants include Bar-headed Geese from Tibet & China and the Grey-lag Geese from Siberia. The park is an excellent breeding site for the Painted Stork, Purple Heron, White Ibis and Eurasian Spoonbill. If you are lucky, you can witness the marvelous courtship dance of the Sarus Crane, the world's tallest bird in flight.
