Kati Bihu Bird Count 2021–Results

Kati Bihu is the time when rice saplings are relocated. The festival is also called Kongali (Poor), which is meant to represent an empty granary and less food at that time of year.

BBC aims to celebrate Kathi Bihu by documenting the wide variety of birds in Assam, particularly those that are winter migrants in Assam.
