7,908 lists from 1,105 birders, with 785 species in total – that’s the impressive headline from 4 days of birding for this year’s GBBC in India. A total of 5,938 hours were spent birding, across 34% of districts nationwide, by experienced birders and newcomers, from sites as diverse as national parks and wildlife sanctuaries, village tanks and parks, and more than 130 institutional campuses as part of the Campus Bird Count.
