# 1 Birding at Bharatpur

I went to Bharatpur in Rajasthan to visit the Keoladeo National Park over the last weekend. It was a fantastic trip and I highly recommend the weekend getaway. Here are some of my captures. I have a lot of photographs from the trip and will be uploading some more in the days to come.
