We visited Bharatpur in the first week of December 2018 and enjoyed bird watching at the Keoladeo National Park. The park is a singularly unique experience for any visitor of National wildlife reserves because of the lack of any large predators other than the rare solitary Striped Hyena one has full leave to walk around the park on foot so long as you stick to the paths allowed by the park The Keoladeo Bird Sanctuary, otherwise known as the Keoladeo Ghana National Park, is one of the world's best known bird feeding and breeding grounds. The park is over 29 square kilometers and boasts of 364 species of birds, including some threatened migratory birds from Central Asia. It is a major tourist centre, with scores of ornithologists arriving here in the winter season. Keoladeo National Park is not a man-made park; instead, it is a naturally formed wetland ecosystem. It was not built by any individual or group but rather evolved over time due to the natural processes of sedimentation and the convergence of two rivers, the Gambhir and Banganga.

It serves as an important overwintering ground for large numbers of Palaearctic migratory waterfowl (ducks, geese, coots, pelicans, and waders) while also supporting a substantial population of resident breeding birds, with one of the region's largest heronries. Keoladeo is India's most famous birdwatching site. In 1984 it had 80,000 visitors, in 1996,125,000 (one third foreign) and in 2002,126,000. Foreigners in 2006 formed 45% of the visitors, despite the fall in numbers of birds (Chauwan, 2006).
