I'm going to be in Kathmandu from 16th-19th Nov and again on 6th-8th Dec. I'll probably go up to Pulchowki mostly. Between those dates I'm thinking of doing the Annapurna Sanctuary Trek and birding along the way, although nothing is yet fixed in that regard.
If anyone wants to join me, get in touch. Also happy to receive any advice. Here's a list of Nepalese birds that I haven't seen, although I appreciate that quite a few will probably be more easily seen in the spring/lowlands:
