Welcome to Nepal Bird Guide




Nepal is home to over 895 species of birds residing in over 37 Important Birds & Biodiversity Areas (IBAs),  spread in Seven vegetation zones (tropical, subtropical, lower-temperate, temperate, sub-alpine, alpine, & arctic). Rich in biodiversity, the Himalayan nation is acclaimed as one of the best birding holiday destinations in the world. 

Nepal’s unique geography has created habitats for many rare species of birds from Himalayan griffon, Himalayan Monal, Cheer Pheasant, Satyr Tragopan in the hidden valleys of the world’s highest mountain peaks to the rarest bird of the world, Bengal florican, Sarus crane in the plain of Terai. The indigenous bird like Great Slaty Woodpecker, and rarest and only endemic bird of Nepal Spiny babbler are the birds that have been sighted often by our birdwatching team. The riverine plains of Nepal are the habitats of the hosts of winter migratory birds from as far as Siberia, Indus Valley, Laddakh, and Tibetan Himalayas.

Nepal’s diversity in culture, scenery and wildlife is perfectly complemented by the friendliness of its people. From the magnificent Himalayas to the sub-tropical lowlands the visitor is given the warmest of welcomes. For a country covering 147181 sq. km there is a fantastic diversity of bird-life, caused by the Indian and Palearctic influences, plus the changes in altitude. The country’s wetlands, 12 national parks, 8 conservation area, and wildlife reserves, lakes, rivers and mountains offer first class bird watching beneath the shadow of the mighty Himalayas and in the shade of the lush green tropical jungles.

 

BIRDING IN KATHMANDU













Why Birdwatching with Us In Nepal?

We are well equipped professional birders. And we have been twitching around in Nepal for the last one decade and a half as bird guides. Moreover, during the low season we make use of our spare time updating knowledge and skills by making collected data coherent and accessible to those who are interested. And we, also, run volunteer or awareness programme for the nature conservation in rural parts of the country.

We are not a huge corporate agent, but a team of local professionals, personally accessible. And this has enabled us to deal with you personally as your field guide. We care for the environment as much as we care about making your Nepal’s bird watching dream come true, both in the tropic and in the Himalayas. You’ll find our price offer a great value for your money as compared to that of the corporate agents. Above all, we strongly support nature conservation and eco-cultural tourism.

 

… Beautiful Moments Always be with You!
