From whooper swans in Kashmir to Himalayan serow in Spiti Valley, birds and animals that have rarely been spotted showed up in 2020, much to the excitement of naturalists
Four majestic whooper swans were spotted in Kashmir recently for the first time after 50 years. They are not the only birds who made headlines in 2020. The desert finch, usually found in Pakistan and Afghanistan, made its stopover at Gurgaon in Delhi, making it to the first photographic record in India. Greater white-fronted geese were photographed at Wadhwana lake in Vadodara for the first time.
