Our Puttenahalli Lake team consisted of Gopinath Subbarao, Harish Mahendrakar, Indrajit Chatterjee, Usha Rajagopalan and two Std. IX enthusiasts, Vishnu Sreenivas and Siddharth. Counting began at 7:15 a.m. and by 9:00 a.m. 26 species (about 140 nos. of birds) were observed. The species and numbers are given below, and posted in ebird.org: http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist/email?subID=S16977422 (login may be required). Hoping that both the figures will increase in the coming years!
