Itinerary description

Drive from Chhari lake to a point where we saw few sykes's nightjar in Banni

Every evening, during their visit to Grassland of Kutch in winter, Common Cranes takeoff in stupendous number to roosting sites, after a day long feeding on the small tubers of the dried grasses, number is estimated to be more than 40,000 individuals, their trumpeting calls is an orchestra for the otherwise silent Rann (Desert) of Kutch

The phenomenon is truly marvelous and cant be replicated in any way.
