Demoiselle Cranes - Kinchan
Well, we got up at 5:45 and drove for an hour out to a
little town called Kinchan. Stood on a rooftop for another hour watching a hundred or more Demoiselle cranes fly in. At the very end they started to go into a penned off yard where the villagers put out food for them. Now it's an hour back to Manvar for breakfast and picking up our luggage before heading onto Jodhpur.

I slept fine in the tent - space heater, hot water bottles and blankets. And franklly I could have kept sleeping until about now and googled the cranes later... Road weary in Rajasthan.
PS - awoke in the middle of the night to a striped cat walking around in our tent. At least I'm hoping it was a cat.
