Birding in India and Indian Subcontinentbirding.in India with more than 1250 species of birds, is a paradise for bird watching. There are over 925 breeding species (~920 residents). The Indian birds belong to 25 groups called Orders, which are further divided into Families, Sub-families and Genera. For birding in India, 13 bio-geographical regions can be demarcated: Trans Himalayan, Western Himalayas, Eastern Himalayas, Desert, Semi-arid, Gangetic plain, Central India, Deccan Plateau, Western Ghats, Eastern Ghats, North East, Coasts and the Andaman Nicobar Islands. The long coastline and the island territories provide an opportunity to watch and study a large number of pelagic birds.

The Blue Peafowl (Pavo cristatus), also known as the Blue Peacock, is the national bird of India. Books
