Let's try again - I'm probably overusing this forum a bit for information, but oh well No-one seemed to know anything about Haridwar (see http://www.birdforum.net/showthread.php?t=199525), so now I have more questions
So, Pangot is one of the premier birding spots of northern India. I was under the impression we weren't going there, but the itinerary has changed a bit so three quick questions;
1: The group will be staying at Mountain Quail Camp in Pangot, but it doesn't have a particularly good website and I can't find any mention of it "birdwise" in reports, etc, due to the fact everyone stays at Jungle Lore. Has anyone stayed at MQCamp who can give me some tips, things to look for, etc?
2: Cheer Pheasents - Where should I look around Pangot for them, and are they on the Cheena Peak Track?
3: General Pangot - Does anyone have an opinion of specific spots to look that were really good for various reasons? (Keeping in mind that due to school rules I always have to be in a group of 4 and I can't get 3 other non-birders to just trek off into the bush to look for birds... :storm: )
Thanks in advance :t:
