    Pakistan and Monsoon NW India - Jul/Aug 2023

    Hi Arbu, Thanks for the excellent information on your grasshopper-warbler record. It's great to have a possible back-up location. Birdtour Asia have a tour visiting the Naltar Vallay (among other places) in June. If they dip, I will know where to try. Cheers, Michael

    Sundarbans (Bangladesh) Masked Finfoot 12th to 16th Apr 2023

    Hi Andy, Glad to hear you are interested - I can send you a PM with some more details if you like? Whether the Finfoot might be easier to find during the Monsoon while breeding is something that I have wondered about myself. But Birdquest and Birdtour Asia go in December and/or February. I...

    Sundarbans (Bangladesh) Masked Finfoot 12th to 16th Apr 2023

    Hi Josh - Thanks! I think you already did the hardest part in organizing the first non-commercial group and finding a spot for the Finfoot (where it seems they are still being seen, hopefully they hang around there for a few more months!). Cheers, Michael

    Great Indian Bustard + NE India (Assam + Arunachal Pradesh) late March- mid April 2022

    I didn't get to Eaglenest (or anywhere else in Arunachal Pradesh) at all due to permit issues. I kept hoping/getting told that PAPs would start to be issued in a few days and then there would be more problems and delays. Very inconvenient since continually rearranging my plans meant I couldn't...
