Pakistan offers a number of locations for birdwatching, such as Margalla Hills National Park, Chitral Gol National Park, and Mansehra District. In Pakistan, there are two main seasons to go birdwatching: winter (October to March) and summer (April to September).
Many birds in Pakistan are in danger of becoming extinct or endangered, including the Chukar Partridge, which is the country’s national bird. The Indian Skimmer, Kashmir Flycatcher, and Houbara Bustard are some other birds that are similarly endangered.
Pakistan is home to a variety of waterbird species, such as gulls, cranes, storks, ducks, and geese.
Notable predatory birds that soar over Pakistan’s skies are the Cinerous Vulture, Bearded Vulture, and Osprey.
Pakistan is located in the western region of the Indian subcontinent, bordered to the west by Afghanistan and Iran, to the east by India, and to the south by the Arabian Sea. The words “pure” and “country” in Urdu are the source of the name. It is nearly twice the size of California. The towering Karakoram and Pamir mountain ranges, which include some of the highest peaks in the world, are located in Pakistan’s northern and western highlands. These ranges are home to K2 (28,250 feet; 8,611 meters) and Nanga Parbat (26,660 feet; 8,126 meters). The Thar Desert, a vast stretch of alluvial plains known as the Punjab and Sind, and the Baluchistan Plateau are located to the west and east, respectively. The Indus River and its tributaries traverse the nation from the Kashmir region to the Arabian Sea, covering a distance of 1,000 miles (1,609 km).
