India’s expansive and diverse landscapes, that range from dense rainforests and arid shrublands to forests that touch the sky, are a birdwatcher’s paradise. While most birds can be sighted with some patience, some are very rare, elusive, or found in inaccessible places.

Below are eight endangered birds that birdwatchers hope to see in the jungles of India.
