In the backdrop of Chhath festivity, I had traversed across the bank of Bagmati and its delta and devoted some time for bird watching. As usual, in late October, the weather was not favorable for bird watching/tour and moreover not suitable for for Birds photography. However, I had made several attempts during my stay at my native place from 24-27 October 2018. The effort was quite productive and I had seen and snapped four new birds which were not noticed by me on previous birding tour. Indian Roller, Common Kestrel, Crested Lark and Oriental magpie-robin were watched besides some common and earlier observed birds.
