Baratpur and Keoladeo National Park

Bit of a random choice, as the highlight here is Keoladeo National Park, famous for its birds. Lots of birds.

Found a lovely quiet guesthouse with a garden and really should have stayed an extra night, as it was very peaceful. The park, mainly the allure of hanging out in nature, was inviting, but the entrance price had doubled since the guidebook came out early last year, and honestly that almost put me off. But I am glad I visited, not really due to the birds seen, but the mammals were great, and cycling around the park was nice and relaxing. Saw some owls, ibis, peacocks, storks, kingfisher and lots of other birds, plus jackals, deer, bigger deer and a family of mongoose!
