Bar-headed Goose

The Bar-headed Goose is among the world’s highest flying birds – flying as high as 33,300 ft. which is way higher than the Mount Everest! They migrate to Bhutan during the winter months. The ancient Chinese martial art form called “Dayan QiGong” is said to have been inspired by the Bar-headed Goose.

They migrate to Bhutan during the winter months and can be seen, among other places, in Punakha and Wangduephodran. The photo below was taken at Bajothang, Wangduephodrang.
