Around 20 children from the NGO called "Desire society" participated in this event. They were divided into groups and each group was led by somebody who has knowledge about the birds and how to spot them. Every children was give a booklet to find more about the birds they are spotting. Each groups also were accompanied by other volunteers. We spotted a lot of birds throughout the park and photographed them as well. Afterwards all the groups shared their knowledge about what they saw and volunteers showed the photos and explained about the birds they just saw. Kids were asked to draw (we provided the drawing boxes to all) the birds they like and later they were also served breakfast. Kids were also given a bird feeder and demonstrated how to use it.
Finally kids were dropped back to the NGO and some of the volunteers stayed back for a bird awareness session by Sreya who is extremely passionate about birds and very inspiring. She also spoke about the vultures whose numbers are getting lower and lower day by day and without them the natural cycle is disturbed.More at www.save-vultures.org
