Our second visit to Greater Rann of Kutch, was primarily targeting the passage migration species. We were able to spot almost all of the species including a few more lifers. All in all, we got 13 lifers and some beautiful photographs of these amazing creatures.

Here are the pictures and video from this visit.
Passage Migration Species: The toughest one to spot was European Nightjar, but we were finally able to see it. Thanks to Bharat from Epicenter Homestay who is such a relentless hard working person. All you have to do is share with him your target list and leave the rest to him.
Other non-passage-migration species spotted: Besides the passage migration species, we were also able to spot some other wonderful beauties from the land of GRK.
