3rd December. We left well before dawn to start the long journey back downhill, birding as we went. today was a Forktail morning, however, as we saw three Spotted and one Black-backed Forktail on our journey through the forest. Back down at the river, we enjoyed excellent views of a Great Black-headed Gull and more Sand Larks as we also enjoyed another fantastic field breakfast with full table, tablecloth etc on board the ferry, much to the amusement of the locals and crew!Bird total: still 4154Posted 3rd December, somewhere in North East India!
