Interwoven with ancient ruins\, walking trails\, and regenerating woodland\, this semi-arid forest is a green oasis amid the capital’s urban sprawl. Once overrun by invasive species\, recent efforts have gradually restored patches of native vegetation\, encouraging the return of dry scrub and thorn forest habitats typical of the Aravallis.								\n				\n				\n				\n									Today\, Sanjay Van supports over 222 bird species\, including Indian Peafowl\, Golden Oriole\, Grey Francolin\, Eurasian Sparrowhawk\, and Spotted Owlet\, making it a vital refuge for both migratory and resident birds. The forest also shelters jackals\, porcupines\, nilgai\, and a range of reptiles. Acting as a crucial ecological corridor in Delhi’s fragmented landscape\, Sanjay Van contributes to air purification\, groundwater recharge\, and offers citizens a rare chance to experience wilderness within city limits.								\n				\n				\n		\n		\n				\n				\n					Partnered with				\n				\n				\n				\n																														\n				\n				\n		\n				\n				\n					Bird Guide: MansiNature educator and birding guide with Midori Walks\, Mansi blends ecology and mindfulness to create enriching outdoor experiences in urban green spaces. 				\n				\n				\n		\n				\n				\n					Bird walk Location				\n				\n				\n				\n																														\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n			\n						\n		\n						\n				\n		\n				\n				\n					Common birds of Sanjay Van				\n				\n				\n				\n									Sanjay Van\, nestled within the South Delhi ridge of the Aravallis\, offers a mosaic of dry deciduous forest\, scrub\, and waterbodies that support rich avian diversity. Over 222 bird species have been recorded here\, with residents such as the Indian Peafowl\, Jungle Babbler\, Red-vented Bulbul\, and Rose-ringed Parakeet commonly seen along trails and forest edges. Raptors like the Shikra\, Oriental Honey-buzzard\, and Black Kite frequently soar overhead\, while understorey-loving species like the Ashy Prinia\, Common Tailorbird\, and Purple Sunbird animate the thickets. Water-associated birds including the White-breasted Waterhen\, Eurasian Moorhen\, and Indian Spot-billed Duck are found in the forest’s ponds and marshy areas.								\n				\n				\n				\n									Migrants and seasonal visitors such as the Greenish Warbler\, Taiga Flycatcher\, Bluethroat\, and Indian Paradise-Flycatcher appear during winter and passage seasons\, adding seasonal vibrancy to the checklist. The forest’s quieter zones also host woodland specialists like the Spotted Owlet\, Coppersmith Barbet\, and Black-rumped Flameback\, making Sanjay Van a rewarding urban biodiversity haven for birdwatchers year-round.								\n				\n		\n				\n				\n					Ashy Prinia				\n				\n				\n				\n					Red-vented Bulbul				\n				\n				\n				\n					Oriental Magpie Robin				\n				\n				\n				\n					Indian Robin				\n				\n				\n				\n					Large Grey Babbler				\n				\n				\n				\n					Common Tailorbird				\n				\n				\n				\n					Jungle Babbler				\n				\n				\n				\n					Black Drongo				\n				\n				\n				\n					Eurasian-collared Dove				\n				\n				\n				\n					Brown-headed Barbet				\n				\n				\n				\n					Indian Peafowl				\n				\n				\n				\n					Common Myna				\n				\n				\n				\n					Eastern Cattle Egret				\n				\n				\n				\n					Grey Francolin				\n				\n				\n				\n					Purple Sunbird				\n				\n				\n				\n					Rufous Treepie				\n				\n				\n				\n					Shikra				\n				\n				\n				\n					Rose-ringed Parakeet				\n				\n				\n				\n					Grey-breasted Prinia				\n				\n				\n				\n					Common-hawk Cuckoo				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n			\n						\n		\n						\n				\n					\n				\n		\n					\n		\n				\n				\n					Summary of Walk				\n				\n				\n				\n									A group of 16 enthusiastic participants joined Mansi and Yashita for a refreshing bird walk at Sanjay Van\, one of Delhi’s most vibrant urban forests. The group recorded a total of 20 bird species\, including some fascinating ones such as the Eastern Barn Owl\, Hume’s Warbler\, and Rufous Treepie.

Interwoven with ancient ruins\, walking trails\, and regenerating woodland\, this semi-arid forest is a green oasis amid the capital’s urban sprawl. Once overrun by invasive species\, recent efforts have gradually restored patches of native vegetation\, encouraging the return of dry scrub and thorn forest habitats typical of the Aravallis.								\n				\n				\n				\n									Today\, Sanjay Van supports over 222 bird species\, including Indian Peafowl\, Golden Oriole\, Grey Francolin\, Eurasian Sparrowhawk\, and Spotted Owlet\, making it a vital refuge for both migratory and resident birds. The forest also shelters jackals\, porcupines\, nilgai\, and a range of reptiles. Acting as a crucial ecological corridor in Delhi’s fragmented landscape\, Sanjay Van contributes to air purification\, groundwater recharge\, and offers citizens a rare chance to experience wilderness within city limits.								\n				\n				\n		\n		\n				\n				\n					Partnered with				\n				\n				\n				\n																														\n				\n				\n		\n				\n				\n					Bird Guide: MansiNature educator and birding guide with Midori Walks\, Mansi blends ecology and mindfulness to create enriching outdoor experiences in urban green spaces. 				\n				\n				\n		\n				\n				\n					Bird walk Location				\n				\n				\n				\n																														\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n			\n						\n		\n						\n				\n		\n				\n				\n					Common birds of Sanjay Van				\n				\n				\n				\n									Sanjay Van\, nestled within the South Delhi ridge of the Aravallis\, offers a mosaic of dry deciduous forest\, scrub\, and waterbodies that support rich avian diversity. Over 222 bird species have been recorded here\, with residents such as the Indian Peafowl\, Jungle Babbler\, Red-vented Bulbul\, and Rose-ringed Parakeet commonly seen along trails and forest edges. Raptors like the Shikra\, Oriental Honey-buzzard\, and Black Kite frequently soar overhead\, while understorey-loving species like the Ashy Prinia\, Common Tailorbird\, and Purple Sunbird animate the thickets. Water-associated birds including the White-breasted Waterhen\, Eurasian Moorhen\, and Indian Spot-billed Duck are found in the forest’s ponds and marshy areas.								\n				\n				\n				\n									Migrants and seasonal visitors such as the Greenish Warbler\, Taiga Flycatcher\, Bluethroat\, and Indian Paradise-Flycatcher appear during winter and passage seasons\, adding seasonal vibrancy to the checklist.

Interwoven with ancient ruins\, walking trails\, and regenerating woodland\, this semi-arid forest is a green oasis amid the capital’s urban sprawl. Once overrun by invasive species\, recent efforts have gradually restored patches of native vegetation\, encouraging the return of dry scrub and thorn forest habitats typical of the Aravallis.								\n				\n				\n				\n									Today\, Sanjay Van supports over 222 bird species\, including Indian Peafowl\, Golden Oriole\, Grey Francolin\, Eurasian Sparrowhawk\, and Spotted Owlet\, making it a vital refuge for both migratory and resident birds. The forest also shelters jackals\, porcupines\, nilgai\, and a range of reptiles. Acting as a crucial ecological corridor in Delhi’s fragmented landscape\, Sanjay Van contributes to air purification\, groundwater recharge\, and offers citizens a rare chance to experience wilderness within city limits.								\n				\n				\n		\n		\n				\n				\n					Partnered with				\n				\n				\n				\n																														\n				\n				\n		\n				\n				\n					Bird Guide: MansiNature educator and birding guide with Midori Walks\, Mansi blends ecology and mindfulness to create enriching outdoor experiences in urban green spaces. 				\n				\n				\n		\n				\n				\n					Bird walk Location				\n				\n				\n				\n																														\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n			\n						\n		\n						\n				\n		\n				\n				\n					Common birds of Sanjay Van				\n				\n				\n				\n									Sanjay Van\, nestled within the South Delhi ridge of the Aravallis\, offers a mosaic of dry deciduous forest\, scrub\, and waterbodies that support rich avian diversity. Over 222 bird species have been recorded here\, with residents such as the Indian Peafowl\, Jungle Babbler\, Red-vented Bulbul\, and Rose-ringed Parakeet commonly seen along trails and forest edges. Raptors like the Shikra\, Oriental Honey-buzzard\, and Black Kite frequently soar overhead\, while understorey-loving species like the Ashy Prinia\, Common Tailorbird\, and Purple Sunbird animate the thickets. Water-associated birds including the White-breasted Waterhen\, Eurasian Moorhen\, and Indian Spot-billed Duck are found in the forest’s ponds and marshy areas.								\n				\n				\n				\n									Migrants and seasonal visitors such as the Greenish Warbler\, Taiga Flycatcher\, Bluethroat\, and Indian Paradise-Flycatcher appear during winter and passage seasons\, adding seasonal vibrancy to the checklist.

Interwoven with ancient ruins\, walking trails\, and regenerating woodland\, this semi-arid forest is a green oasis amid the capital’s urban sprawl. Once overrun by invasive species\, recent efforts have gradually restored patches of native vegetation\, encouraging the return of dry scrub and thorn forest habitats typical of the Aravallis.								\n				\n				\n				\n									Today\, Sanjay Van supports over 222 bird species\, including Indian Peafowl\, Golden Oriole\, Grey Francolin\, Eurasian Sparrowhawk\, and Spotted Owlet\, making it a vital refuge for both migratory and resident birds. The forest also shelters jackals\, porcupines\, nilgai\, and a range of reptiles. Acting as a crucial ecological corridor in Delhi’s fragmented landscape\, Sanjay Van contributes to air purification\, groundwater recharge\, and offers citizens a rare chance to experience wilderness within city limits.								\n				\n				\n		\n		\n				\n				\n					Partnered with				\n				\n				\n				\n																														\n				\n				\n		\n				\n				\n					Bird Guide: MansiNature educator and birding guide with Midori Walks\, Mansi blends ecology and mindfulness to create enriching outdoor experiences in urban green spaces. 				\n				\n				\n		\n				\n				\n					Bird walk Location				\n				\n				\n				\n																														\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n			\n						\n		\n						\n				\n		\n				\n				\n					Common birds of Sanjay Van				\n				\n				\n				\n									Sanjay Van\, nestled within the South Delhi ridge of the Aravallis\, offers a mosaic of dry deciduous forest\, scrub\, and waterbodies that support rich avian diversity. Over 222 bird species have been recorded here\, with residents such as the Indian Peafowl\, Jungle Babbler\, Red-vented Bulbul\, and Rose-ringed Parakeet commonly seen along trails and forest edges. Raptors like the Shikra\, Oriental Honey-buzzard\, and Black Kite frequently soar overhead\, while understorey-loving species like the Ashy Prinia\, Common Tailorbird\, and Purple Sunbird animate the thickets. Water-associated birds including the White-breasted Waterhen\, Eurasian Moorhen\, and Indian Spot-billed Duck are found in the forest’s ponds and marshy areas.								\n				\n				\n				\n									Migrants and seasonal visitors such as the Greenish Warbler\, Taiga Flycatcher\, Bluethroat\, and Indian Paradise-Flycatcher appear during winter and passage seasons\, adding seasonal vibrancy to the checklist. The forest’s quieter zones also host woodland specialists like the Spotted Owlet\, Coppersmith Barbet\, and Black-rumped Flameback\, making Sanjay Van a rewarding urban biodiversity haven for birdwatchers year-round.								\n				\n		\n				\n				\n					Ashy Prinia				\n				\n				\n				\n					Red-vented Bulbul				\n				\n				\n				\n					Oriental Magpie Robin				\n				\n				\n				\n					Indian Robin				\n				\n				\n				\n					Large Grey Babbler				\n				\n				\n				\n					Common Tailorbird				\n				\n				\n				\n					Jungle Babbler				\n				\n				\n				\n					Black Drongo				\n				\n				\n				\n					Eurasian-collared Dove				\n				\n				\n				\n					Brown-headed Barbet				\n				\n				\n				\n					Indian Peafowl				\n				\n				\n				\n					Common Myna				\n				\n				\n				\n					Eastern Cattle Egret				\n				\n				\n				\n					Grey Francolin				\n				\n				\n				\n					Purple Sunbird				\n				\n				\n				\n					Rufous Treepie				\n				\n				\n				\n					Shikra				\n				\n				\n				\n					Rose-ringed Parakeet				\n				\n				\n				\n					Grey-breasted Prinia				\n				\n				\n				\n					Common-hawk Cuckoo				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n			\n						\n		\n						\n				\n					\n				\n		\n					\n		\n				\n				\n					Summary of Walk				\n				\n				\n				\n									A group of 16 enthusiastic participants joined Mansi and Yashita for a refreshing bird walk at Sanjay Van\, one of Delhi’s most vibrant urban forests. The group recorded a total of 20 bird species\, including some fascinating ones such as the Eastern Barn Owl\, Hume’s Warbler\, and Rufous Treepie. The diverse woodland habitat offered participants an excellent opportunity to connect with nature and experience the city’s thriving birdlife.								\n				\n				\n				\n									Beyond birdwatching\, the group also took part in a forest meditation session\, deepening their sense of calm and connection with the surroundings. Participants learnt about the importance of birdwatching\, engaged in fun bird-themed games\, and listened to interesting bird stories that highlighted unique behaviors and adaptations. The walk ended on an uplifting note\, with everyone feeling inspired to observe\, appreciate\, and protect the birds around them.								\n				\n				\n		\n				\n				\n							\n			Number of Participants			\n				\n				0
