SUMMARY:Bird Walk at Nagla Block Trail\, SGNP\, Thane Maharashtra
DESCRIPTION:Bird Walk at Nursery Trail – Kukrail Forest\, Lucknow\, UP				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n							\n											\n													\n										Lucknow\n									\n								\n											\n													\n										30 August\, 2026\n									\n								\n											\n													\n										Abhishek Singh\n									\n						\n						\n				\n				\n				\n																														\n				\n					\n				\n		\n					\n		\n				\n				\n					About Nursery Trail - Kukrail Forest				\n				\n				\n				\n									Nursery Trail in Kukrail Forest is a green and relatively quiet birding area within the extensive forest landscape of Lucknow. The trail passes through a mix of mature trees\, woodland\, scrub and open patches\, creating varied habitats for birds throughout the year. The dense tree cover provides nesting and roosting sites\, while flowering and fruiting trees offer important food resources for frugivorous and nectar-feeding species. The surrounding forest also supports a range of insect-rich vegetation\, making the area suitable for insectivorous birds. Early mornings are particularly rewarding\, when bird activity is high and the calls of different species can be heard throughout the forest.								\n				\n				\n				\n									The trail provides a useful opportunity to experience relatively natural woodland habitat within an urban setting. Its tree-lined surroundings and connected forest patches make it valuable for maintaining local bird diversity and providing refuge for species that are less commonly encountered in built-up parts of Lucknow. The combination of canopy\, understory and open areas allows birdwatchers to observe species occupying different levels of the habitat. Responsible birdwatching\, particularly avoiding playback\, nest disturbance and excessive noise\, is important in such forest environments. With its accessible trails and diverse vegetation\, Nursery Trail is a promising location for both beginners and experienced birdwatchers interested in exploring the birdlife of Lucknow’s Kukrail forest landscape.								\n				\n				\n		\n		\n		\n				\n				\n					Bird Guide: Abhishek SinghA passionate wildlife enthusiast with 3 years of birding experience\, he enjoys exploring forests and understanding birds in their natural habitats. He is keen on observing behavior and sharing his knowledge to help others connect with nature. 				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					Bird walk Location				\n				\n				\n				\n																														\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n			\n						\n		\n						\n				\n		\n				\n				\n					Common birds of Nursery Trail - Kukrail Forest				\n				\n				\n				\n									Nursery Trail supports a diverse community of woodland and urban-edge birds\, with several species closely associated with mature tree cover. The birding highlights include the Yellow-footed Green Pigeon\, Indian Gray Hornbill\, Brown-headed Barbet\, Coppersmith Barbet and Alexandrine Parakeet\, reflecting the availability of fruiting trees\, tree cavities and woodland habitat. The presence of both Rose-ringed Parakeet and Alexandrine Parakeet adds to the diversity of canopy birds\, while Indian White-eye\, Oriental Magpie-Robin\, Red-vented Bulbul and Red-whiskered Bulbul are associated with the foliage and understory. The forest also provides habitat for predatory and insectivorous species such as the Common Hawk-Cuckoo and Black Kite. Ground and lower vegetation support Jungle Babbler\, while the presence of Jungle Owlet and Forest Owlet makes the site particularly interesting for birdwatchers interested in owls. Common species such as Common Myna\, House Crow\, Large-billed Crow\, Eurasian Collared-Dove\, Spotted Dove and Laughing Dove add to the overall bird diversity. Together\, these records highlight the ecological value of the Kukrail forest within Lucknow’s urban landscape.								\n				\n		\n				\n				\n					Yellow-footed Green Pigeon				\n				\n				\n				\n					Common Hawk-Cuckoo				\n				\n				\n				\n					Brown-headed Barbet				\n				\n				\n				\n					Coppersmith Barbet				\n				\n				\n				\n					Red-vented Bulbul				\n				\n				\n				\n					Red-whiskered Bulbul				\n				\n				\n				\n					Rose-ringed Parakeet				\n				\n				\n				\n					Alexandrine Parakeet				\n				\n				\n				\n					Indian Grey Hornbill				\n				\n				\n				\n					Indian White-eye				\n				\n				\n				\n					Oriental Magpie-Robin				\n				\n				\n				\n					House Crow				\n				\n				\n				\n					Large-billed Crow				\n				\n				\n				\n					Indian Grey Hornbill				\n				\n				\n				\n					Purple Sunbird				\n				\n				\n				\n					Black Kite				\n				\n				\n				\n					Jungle Babbler				\n				\n				\n				\n					Eurasian Collared Dove				\n				\n				\n				\n					Spotted Dove				\n				\n				\n				\n					Laughing Dove				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n			\n						\n		\n						\n				\n					\n				\n		\n					\n		\n				\n				\n					Summary of Walk				\n				\n				\n				\n									Guided by Abhishek Singh\, participants enjoyed an engaging bird walk along the Nursery Trail within Kukrail Forest in Lucknow. This protected forest reserve\, with its dense tree cover and varied understorey\, provides an important green refuge that supports a rich diversity of woodland birdlife close to the city.\nThe forest’s mix of native trees and undergrowth typically hosts species such as woodpeckers\, barbets\, drongos\, orioles and owls\, along with a variety of warblers and flycatchers moving through the canopy. This layered habitat structure makes Kukrail Forest an especially rewarding location for observing birds across different heights and niches within the forest. Participants enjoyed the shaded\, peaceful trail and the opportunity to explore this urban forest’s surprising natural richness\, coming away with a greater appreciation for the biodiversity that Kukrail Forest continues to protect on the edge of Lucknow.								\n				\n				\n		\n				\n				\n							\n			Number of Participants			\n				\n				0

The trail passes through a mix of mature trees\, woodland\, scrub and open patches\, creating varied habitats for birds throughout the year. The dense tree cover provides nesting and roosting sites\, while flowering and fruiting trees offer important food resources for frugivorous and nectar-feeding species. The surrounding forest also supports a range of insect-rich vegetation\, making the area suitable for insectivorous birds. Early mornings are particularly rewarding\, when bird activity is high and the calls of different species can be heard throughout the forest.								\n				\n				\n				\n									The trail provides a useful opportunity to experience relatively natural woodland habitat within an urban setting. Its tree-lined surroundings and connected forest patches make it valuable for maintaining local bird diversity and providing refuge for species that are less commonly encountered in built-up parts of Lucknow. The combination of canopy\, understory and open areas allows birdwatchers to observe species occupying different levels of the habitat. Responsible birdwatching\, particularly avoiding playback\, nest disturbance and excessive noise\, is important in such forest environments. With its accessible trails and diverse vegetation\, Nursery Trail is a promising location for both beginners and experienced birdwatchers interested in exploring the birdlife of Lucknow’s Kukrail forest landscape.								\n				\n				\n		\n		\n		\n				\n				\n					Bird Guide: Abhishek SinghA passionate wildlife enthusiast with 3 years of birding experience\, he enjoys exploring forests and understanding birds in their natural habitats.

SUMMARY:Bird Walk at Khalanga Reserve Forest\, Dehradun\, Uttarakhand
DESCRIPTION:Bird Walk at Nursery Trail – Kukrail Forest\, Lucknow\, UP				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n							\n											\n													\n										Lucknow\n									\n								\n											\n													\n										30 August\, 2026\n									\n								\n											\n													\n										Abhishek Singh\n									\n						\n						\n				\n				\n				\n																														\n				\n					\n				\n		\n					\n		\n				\n				\n					About Nursery Trail - Kukrail Forest				\n				\n				\n				\n									Nursery Trail in Kukrail Forest is a green and relatively quiet birding area within the extensive forest landscape of Lucknow. The trail passes through a mix of mature trees\, woodland\, scrub and open patches\, creating varied habitats for birds throughout the year. The dense tree cover provides nesting and roosting sites\, while flowering and fruiting trees offer important food resources for frugivorous and nectar-feeding species. The surrounding forest also supports a range of insect-rich vegetation\, making the area suitable for insectivorous birds. Early mornings are particularly rewarding\, when bird activity is high and the calls of different species can be heard throughout the forest.								\n				\n				\n				\n									The trail provides a useful opportunity to experience relatively natural woodland habitat within an urban setting. Its tree-lined surroundings and connected forest patches make it valuable for maintaining local bird diversity and providing refuge for species that are less commonly encountered in built-up parts of Lucknow. The combination of canopy\, understory and open areas allows birdwatchers to observe species occupying different levels of the habitat. Responsible birdwatching\, particularly avoiding playback\, nest disturbance and excessive noise\, is important in such forest environments. With its accessible trails and diverse vegetation\, Nursery Trail is a promising location for both beginners and experienced birdwatchers interested in exploring the birdlife of Lucknow’s Kukrail forest landscape.								\n				\n				\n		\n		\n		\n				\n				\n					Bird Guide: Abhishek SinghA passionate wildlife enthusiast with 3 years of birding experience\, he enjoys exploring forests and understanding birds in their natural habitats. He is keen on observing behavior and sharing his knowledge to help others connect with nature. 				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					Bird walk Location				\n				\n				\n				\n																														\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n			\n						\n		\n						\n				\n		\n				\n				\n					Common birds of Nursery Trail - Kukrail Forest				\n				\n				\n				\n									Nursery Trail supports a diverse community of woodland and urban-edge birds\, with several species closely associated with mature tree cover. The birding highlights include the Yellow-footed Green Pigeon\, Indian Gray Hornbill\, Brown-headed Barbet\, Coppersmith Barbet and Alexandrine Parakeet\, reflecting the availability of fruiting trees\, tree cavities and woodland habitat. The presence of both Rose-ringed Parakeet and Alexandrine Parakeet adds to the diversity of canopy birds\, while Indian White-eye\, Oriental Magpie-Robin\, Red-vented Bulbul and Red-whiskered Bulbul are associated with the foliage and understory. The forest also provides habitat for predatory and insectivorous species such as the Common Hawk-Cuckoo and Black Kite. Ground and lower vegetation support Jungle Babbler\, while the presence of Jungle Owlet and Forest Owlet makes the site particularly interesting for birdwatchers interested in owls. Common species such as Common Myna\, House Crow\, Large-billed Crow\, Eurasian Collared-Dove\, Spotted Dove and Laughing Dove add to the overall bird diversity. Together\, these records highlight the ecological value of the Kukrail forest within Lucknow’s urban landscape.								\n				\n		\n				\n				\n					Yellow-footed Green Pigeon				\n				\n				\n				\n					Common Hawk-Cuckoo				\n				\n				\n				\n					Brown-headed Barbet				\n				\n				\n				\n					Coppersmith Barbet				\n				\n				\n				\n					Red-vented Bulbul				\n				\n				\n				\n					Red-whiskered Bulbul				\n				\n				\n				\n					Rose-ringed Parakeet				\n				\n				\n				\n					Alexandrine Parakeet				\n				\n				\n				\n					Indian Grey Hornbill				\n				\n				\n				\n					Indian White-eye				\n				\n				\n				\n					Oriental Magpie-Robin				\n				\n				\n				\n					House Crow				\n				\n				\n				\n					Large-billed Crow				\n				\n				\n				\n					Indian Grey Hornbill				\n				\n				\n				\n					Purple Sunbird				\n				\n				\n				\n					Black Kite				\n				\n				\n				\n					Jungle Babbler				\n				\n				\n				\n					Eurasian Collared Dove				\n				\n				\n				\n					Spotted Dove				\n				\n				\n				\n					Laughing Dove				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n			\n						\n		\n						\n				\n					\n				\n		\n					\n		\n				\n				\n					Summary of Walk				\n				\n				\n				\n									Guided by Abhishek Singh\, participants enjoyed an engaging bird walk along the Nursery Trail within Kukrail Forest in Lucknow.

This layered habitat structure makes Kukrail Forest an especially rewarding location for observing birds across different heights and niches within the forest. Participants enjoyed the shaded\, peaceful trail and the opportunity to explore this urban forest’s surprising natural richness\, coming away with a greater appreciation for the biodiversity that Kukrail Forest continues to protect on the edge of Lucknow.								\n				\n				\n		\n				\n				\n							\n			Number of Participants			\n				\n				0

The trail passes through a mix of mature trees\, woodland\, scrub and open patches\, creating varied habitats for birds throughout the year. The dense tree cover provides nesting and roosting sites\, while flowering and fruiting trees offer important food resources for frugivorous and nectar-feeding species. The surrounding forest also supports a range of insect-rich vegetation\, making the area suitable for insectivorous birds. Early mornings are particularly rewarding\, when bird activity is high and the calls of different species can be heard throughout the forest.								\n				\n				\n				\n									The trail provides a useful opportunity to experience relatively natural woodland habitat within an urban setting. Its tree-lined surroundings and connected forest patches make it valuable for maintaining local bird diversity and providing refuge for species that are less commonly encountered in built-up parts of Lucknow. The combination of canopy\, understory and open areas allows birdwatchers to observe species occupying different levels of the habitat. Responsible birdwatching\, particularly avoiding playback\, nest disturbance and excessive noise\, is important in such forest environments. With its accessible trails and diverse vegetation\, Nursery Trail is a promising location for both beginners and experienced birdwatchers interested in exploring the birdlife of Lucknow’s Kukrail forest landscape.								\n				\n				\n		\n		\n		\n				\n				\n					Bird Guide: Abhishek SinghA passionate wildlife enthusiast with 3 years of birding experience\, he enjoys exploring forests and understanding birds in their natural habitats.

DESCRIPTION:Bird Walk at Nursery Trail – Kukrail Forest\, Lucknow\, UP				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n							\n											\n													\n										Lucknow\n									\n								\n											\n													\n										30 August\, 2026\n									\n								\n											\n													\n										Abhishek Singh\n									\n						\n						\n				\n				\n				\n																														\n				\n					\n				\n		\n					\n		\n				\n				\n					About Nursery Trail - Kukrail Forest				\n				\n				\n				\n									Nursery Trail in Kukrail Forest is a green and relatively quiet birding area within the extensive forest landscape of Lucknow. The trail passes through a mix of mature trees\, woodland\, scrub and open patches\, creating varied habitats for birds throughout the year. The dense tree cover provides nesting and roosting sites\, while flowering and fruiting trees offer important food resources for frugivorous and nectar-feeding species. The surrounding forest also supports a range of insect-rich vegetation\, making the area suitable for insectivorous birds. Early mornings are particularly rewarding\, when bird activity is high and the calls of different species can be heard throughout the forest.								\n				\n				\n				\n									The trail provides a useful opportunity to experience relatively natural woodland habitat within an urban setting. Its tree-lined surroundings and connected forest patches make it valuable for maintaining local bird diversity and providing refuge for species that are less commonly encountered in built-up parts of Lucknow. The combination of canopy\, understory and open areas allows birdwatchers to observe species occupying different levels of the habitat. Responsible birdwatching\, particularly avoiding playback\, nest disturbance and excessive noise\, is important in such forest environments. With its accessible trails and diverse vegetation\, Nursery Trail is a promising location for both beginners and experienced birdwatchers interested in exploring the birdlife of Lucknow’s Kukrail forest landscape.								\n				\n				\n		\n		\n		\n				\n				\n					Bird Guide: Abhishek SinghA passionate wildlife enthusiast with 3 years of birding experience\, he enjoys exploring forests and understanding birds in their natural habitats. He is keen on observing behavior and sharing his knowledge to help others connect with nature. 				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					Bird walk Location				\n				\n				\n				\n																														\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n			\n						\n		\n						\n				\n		\n				\n				\n					Common birds of Nursery Trail - Kukrail Forest				\n				\n				\n				\n									Nursery Trail supports a diverse community of woodland and urban-edge birds\, with several species closely associated with mature tree cover. The birding highlights include the Yellow-footed Green Pigeon\, Indian Gray Hornbill\, Brown-headed Barbet\, Coppersmith Barbet and Alexandrine Parakeet\, reflecting the availability of fruiting trees\, tree cavities and woodland habitat. The presence of both Rose-ringed Parakeet and Alexandrine Parakeet adds to the diversity of canopy birds\, while Indian White-eye\, Oriental Magpie-Robin\, Red-vented Bulbul and Red-whiskered Bulbul are associated with the foliage and understory. The forest also provides habitat for predatory and insectivorous species such as the Common Hawk-Cuckoo and Black Kite. Ground and lower vegetation support Jungle Babbler\, while the presence of Jungle Owlet and Forest Owlet makes the site particularly interesting for birdwatchers interested in owls. Common species such as Common Myna\, House Crow\, Large-billed Crow\, Eurasian Collared-Dove\, Spotted Dove and Laughing Dove add to the overall bird diversity. Together\, these records highlight the ecological value of the Kukrail forest within Lucknow’s urban landscape.								\n				\n		\n				\n				\n					Yellow-footed Green Pigeon				\n				\n				\n				\n					Common Hawk-Cuckoo				\n				\n				\n				\n					Brown-headed Barbet				\n				\n				\n				\n					Coppersmith Barbet				\n				\n				\n				\n					Red-vented Bulbul				\n				\n				\n				\n					Red-whiskered Bulbul				\n				\n				\n				\n					Rose-ringed Parakeet				\n				\n				\n				\n					Alexandrine Parakeet				\n				\n				\n				\n					Indian Grey Hornbill				\n				\n				\n				\n					Indian White-eye				\n				\n				\n				\n					Oriental Magpie-Robin				\n				\n				\n				\n					House Crow				\n				\n				\n				\n					Large-billed Crow				\n				\n				\n				\n					Indian Grey Hornbill				\n				\n				\n				\n					Purple Sunbird				\n				\n				\n				\n					Black Kite				\n				\n				\n				\n					Jungle Babbler				\n				\n				\n				\n					Eurasian Collared Dove				\n				\n				\n				\n					Spotted Dove				\n				\n				\n				\n					Laughing Dove				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n			\n						\n		\n						\n				\n					\n				\n		\n					\n		\n				\n				\n					Summary of Walk				\n				\n				\n				\n									Guided by Abhishek Singh\, participants enjoyed an engaging bird walk along the Nursery Trail within Kukrail Forest in Lucknow.

SUMMARY:Bird Walk at Sanjay Van\, New Delhi
DESCRIPTION:Bird Walk at Nursery Trail – Kukrail Forest\, Lucknow\, UP				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n							\n											\n													\n										Lucknow\n									\n								\n											\n													\n										30 August\, 2026\n									\n								\n											\n													\n										Abhishek Singh\n									\n						\n						\n				\n				\n				\n																														\n				\n					\n				\n		\n					\n		\n				\n				\n					About Nursery Trail - Kukrail Forest				\n				\n				\n				\n									Nursery Trail in Kukrail Forest is a green and relatively quiet birding area within the extensive forest landscape of Lucknow. The trail passes through a mix of mature trees\, woodland\, scrub and open patches\, creating varied habitats for birds throughout the year. The dense tree cover provides nesting and roosting sites\, while flowering and fruiting trees offer important food resources for frugivorous and nectar-feeding species. The surrounding forest also supports a range of insect-rich vegetation\, making the area suitable for insectivorous birds. Early mornings are particularly rewarding\, when bird activity is high and the calls of different species can be heard throughout the forest.								\n				\n				\n				\n									The trail provides a useful opportunity to experience relatively natural woodland habitat within an urban setting. Its tree-lined surroundings and connected forest patches make it valuable for maintaining local bird diversity and providing refuge for species that are less commonly encountered in built-up parts of Lucknow. The combination of canopy\, understory and open areas allows birdwatchers to observe species occupying different levels of the habitat. Responsible birdwatching\, particularly avoiding playback\, nest disturbance and excessive noise\, is important in such forest environments. With its accessible trails and diverse vegetation\, Nursery Trail is a promising location for both beginners and experienced birdwatchers interested in exploring the birdlife of Lucknow’s Kukrail forest landscape.								\n				\n				\n		\n		\n		\n				\n				\n					Bird Guide: Abhishek SinghA passionate wildlife enthusiast with 3 years of birding experience\, he enjoys exploring forests and understanding birds in their natural habitats.

The birding highlights include the Yellow-footed Green Pigeon\, Indian Gray Hornbill\, Brown-headed Barbet\, Coppersmith Barbet and Alexandrine Parakeet\, reflecting the availability of fruiting trees\, tree cavities and woodland habitat. The presence of both Rose-ringed Parakeet and Alexandrine Parakeet adds to the diversity of canopy birds\, while Indian White-eye\, Oriental Magpie-Robin\, Red-vented Bulbul and Red-whiskered Bulbul are associated with the foliage and understory. The forest also provides habitat for predatory and insectivorous species such as the Common Hawk-Cuckoo and Black Kite.

DESCRIPTION:Bird Walk at Nursery Trail – Kukrail Forest\, Lucknow\, UP				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n							\n											\n													\n										Lucknow\n									\n								\n											\n													\n										30 August\, 2026\n									\n								\n											\n													\n										Abhishek Singh\n									\n						\n						\n				\n				\n				\n																														\n				\n					\n				\n		\n					\n		\n				\n				\n					About Nursery Trail - Kukrail Forest				\n				\n				\n				\n									Nursery Trail in Kukrail Forest is a green and relatively quiet birding area within the extensive forest landscape of Lucknow. The trail passes through a mix of mature trees\, woodland\, scrub and open patches\, creating varied habitats for birds throughout the year. The dense tree cover provides nesting and roosting sites\, while flowering and fruiting trees offer important food resources for frugivorous and nectar-feeding species. The surrounding forest also supports a range of insect-rich vegetation\, making the area suitable for insectivorous birds. Early mornings are particularly rewarding\, when bird activity is high and the calls of different species can be heard throughout the forest.								\n				\n				\n				\n									The trail provides a useful opportunity to experience relatively natural woodland habitat within an urban setting. Its tree-lined surroundings and connected forest patches make it valuable for maintaining local bird diversity and providing refuge for species that are less commonly encountered in built-up parts of Lucknow. The combination of canopy\, understory and open areas allows birdwatchers to observe species occupying different levels of the habitat. Responsible birdwatching\, particularly avoiding playback\, nest disturbance and excessive noise\, is important in such forest environments. With its accessible trails and diverse vegetation\, Nursery Trail is a promising location for both beginners and experienced birdwatchers interested in exploring the birdlife of Lucknow’s Kukrail forest landscape.								\n				\n				\n		\n		\n		\n				\n				\n					Bird Guide: Abhishek SinghA passionate wildlife enthusiast with 3 years of birding experience\, he enjoys exploring forests and understanding birds in their natural habitats. He is keen on observing behavior and sharing his knowledge to help others connect with nature. 				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					Bird walk Location				\n				\n				\n				\n																														\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n			\n						\n		\n						\n				\n		\n				\n				\n					Common birds of Nursery Trail - Kukrail Forest				\n				\n				\n				\n									Nursery Trail supports a diverse community of woodland and urban-edge birds\, with several species closely associated with mature tree cover. The birding highlights include the Yellow-footed Green Pigeon\, Indian Gray Hornbill\, Brown-headed Barbet\, Coppersmith Barbet and Alexandrine Parakeet\, reflecting the availability of fruiting trees\, tree cavities and woodland habitat. The presence of both Rose-ringed Parakeet and Alexandrine Parakeet adds to the diversity of canopy birds\, while Indian White-eye\, Oriental Magpie-Robin\, Red-vented Bulbul and Red-whiskered Bulbul are associated with the foliage and understory. The forest also provides habitat for predatory and insectivorous species such as the Common Hawk-Cuckoo and Black Kite. Ground and lower vegetation support Jungle Babbler\, while the presence of Jungle Owlet and Forest Owlet makes the site particularly interesting for birdwatchers interested in owls. Common species such as Common Myna\, House Crow\, Large-billed Crow\, Eurasian Collared-Dove\, Spotted Dove and Laughing Dove add to the overall bird diversity. Together\, these records highlight the ecological value of the Kukrail forest within Lucknow’s urban landscape.								\n				\n		\n				\n				\n					Yellow-footed Green Pigeon				\n				\n				\n				\n					Common Hawk-Cuckoo				\n				\n				\n				\n					Brown-headed Barbet				\n				\n				\n				\n					Coppersmith Barbet				\n				\n				\n				\n					Red-vented Bulbul				\n				\n				\n				\n					Red-whiskered Bulbul				\n				\n				\n				\n					Rose-ringed Parakeet				\n				\n				\n				\n					Alexandrine Parakeet				\n				\n				\n				\n					Indian Grey Hornbill				\n				\n				\n				\n					Indian White-eye				\n				\n				\n				\n					Oriental Magpie-Robin				\n				\n				\n				\n					House Crow				\n				\n				\n				\n					Large-billed Crow				\n				\n				\n				\n					Indian Grey Hornbill				\n				\n				\n				\n					Purple Sunbird				\n				\n				\n				\n					Black Kite				\n				\n				\n				\n					Jungle Babbler				\n				\n				\n				\n					Eurasian Collared Dove				\n				\n				\n				\n					Spotted Dove				\n				\n				\n				\n					Laughing Dove				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n			\n						\n		\n						\n				\n					\n				\n		\n					\n		\n				\n				\n					Summary of Walk				\n				\n				\n				\n									Guided by Abhishek Singh\, participants enjoyed an engaging bird walk along the Nursery Trail within Kukrail Forest in Lucknow. This protected forest reserve\, with its dense tree cover and varied understorey\, provides an important green refuge that supports a rich diversity of woodland birdlife close to the city.\nThe forest’s mix of native trees and undergrowth typically hosts species such as woodpeckers\, barbets\, drongos\, orioles and owls\, along with a variety of warblers and flycatchers moving through the canopy. This layered habitat structure makes Kukrail Forest an especially rewarding location for observing birds across different heights and niches within the forest. Participants enjoyed the shaded\, peaceful trail and the opportunity to explore this urban forest’s surprising natural richness\, coming away with a greater appreciation for the biodiversity that Kukrail Forest continues to protect on the edge of Lucknow.								\n				\n				\n		\n				\n				\n							\n			Number of Participants			\n				\n				0
