Beautiful scene at Haiderpur Wetland, a #ramsar site, as migratory birds like Graylag Goose start arriving. The overall waterbird numbers are down from previous years and hopefully will increase in coming weeks. @birdcountindia @WetlandsInt_SA @BNHSIndia #nature #birdwatching

55,000 #trees could be missed by a slight oversight, or sleighted by oversight?
A final impact assessment of the new Goa airport site said that it had “only few trees but mainly bushes”. It forgot to mention that there were 55,000 trees, all of which would be felled. In @MorningContext by @nihargokhale.
