Dhinchda : House of Feathers!!

Dhinchda is the best place for birding at Jamnagar. It's my most favorite spot. For last 1-2 weeks I used to be Dhinchda every morning. Morning at Dhinchda is something I don't want to miss any day. Each & every morning I can find different kind of activity of birds. It's very convenient to go there as it's very near to Jamnagar (only 7-8 km). Now a days it's having large no of Ducks, Waders, Flamingos, Pelicans, Spoon bills, Painted Storks. Last time also found on of the endangered species Black necked Stork. The Ducks at Dhinchda are awesome! One can find Common Pochard, Tufted Duck, Shovellers, Pintails, Common Teals, Wigeons, Gadwals together.
