Birds of India – A Synopsis

Join this friendly bird taxonomy quiz with Praveen. The questions may sound difficult but you will find the answers are easy.  

Poster on Bird Taxonomy Quiz held on zoom for 28 October 2024 at 7 pm

We will also take this occasion to launch this new birding resource, ‘Birds of India – A Synopsis’ which is a one-stop for a taxonomic list of bird species and subspecies found in India. We will take you through on how to browse and find relevant information on this website.

Together, we will also discuss the major taxonomic changes happening in eBird and worldwide this year. What is happening to our Large Cuckooshrikes? Do we need to learn new names?
