the Emperor}. Today a visitor to Agra is caught up in a world of contrasting
edifices, of red sandstone and white marble, narrow galleys and quaint
buggies, and that irresistible charm that this favorite city of the Mughals
still retains. It is not surprising, that modern Agra still reflects its

cuisine.

with their distinctive red beaks and facial patches, fly over 6400 km from
their summer retreats.

fowl are amongst the 375 species of birds found in the Keoladeo National

cormorants, which make over 10,000 nests every year. This makes outstanding
bird havens of the world. The park covers an area of 28.73km.

the migratory waterfowl. The most prominent waterfowl coming to this park

the lakes. The ducks usually found here are pintail, widgeon, common
shelduck, shoveler, garganey, teal, etc.

Arrival
at Bharatpur
The Keoladeo Ghana National Park is one of the finest
water-bird sanctuaries in the world. The Maharaja of Bharatpur artificially
created the lake and wetland in the 19th century. By building small dykes
and dams and diverting water from an irrigation canal, he converted this
low-lying area into a fine wild fowl shooting preserve. In a few years, the
new wetland surrounded by marginal forests was able to support thousands of
water birds.
Commonly referred to as Bharatpur, the Park is a delight for bird watchers.
Over 375 species of birds are found here and raised paths, camouflaged by
babul trees and undergrowth make viewing easy. A quiet ride by boat in the
early hours of the morning is also unforgettable experience. The cacophony
is unbelievable as painted storks, open bills, spoonbills, egrets,
cormorants, white ibis and multitudes of others, tend their young. Jacanas
with their iridescent colors and elegant tail feathers and purple moorhen
can be seen delicately treading over the floating vegetation.
