The lowlands and Himalayan foothills of northeast India are highly-prized destinations for birders. The Bugun Liocichla in that region was only described in the 1990s. In addition to a terrific variety of birds over a huge elevational gradient, the region also hosts a surprising number of tigers, rhinos, and elephants. Combine that with local Indian food, good roads, friendly people, and fascinating cultural diversity, it’s a trip that’s hard to beat anywhere on the planet. Terry will touch on each of these aspects of his April 2022 trip.
