Birding in sal patch (16 November 2013)

So we started the Saturday morning birding at 7 am. The birds we saw on way and in sal patch are listed as follows. This patch is just some 3 sq km in chandrabani, Dehradun. With the settlements on its edges this piece of forest patch is a bit cut off from the range of Rajaji national park. Winter season hence during our morning birding (7-9 am) not much birds visible. Still we got a number of them.
