At Paradgaon Lake inNagpur District, Maharashtra, central India, Avinash Londhe and Tarun
Balpande recorded a Bar-headed Goose on 24 November 2011,
which had been marked in Mongolia several years ago. The goose was
among a flock of about 300 birds that has arrived at the lake, some
30 km from Nagpur. It has been spotted here first in 2008 and has
been seen every year since at this site. Over 800 Bar-headed Geese
winter at Paradgaon and Saiki lakes on Umred road every year.

Thanks to My Friend Tarun Balpande for guiding me during the visit & Axel Braunlich for appreciating our work, Thanks Tarun...
Nice you picked up the white cranes a couple of days later. By the way, I'm a Belgian birdwatcher.
