Mohn - Nubra Valley (Original Mix)



you know, we must fight to protect our wildlife and nature, like the creatures of the, "Nubra Valley", (Tibetan : ལྡུམ་ར; Wylie : ldum ra; English : Nubra is a tri-armed valley located to the north east of Ladakh valley. Diskit the capital of Nubra is about 150 km north from Leh town, the capital of Ladakh district, India. Local scholars say that its original name was Ldumra the valley of flowers. The Shyok River meets the Nubra or Siachan River to form a large valley that separates the Ladakh and Karakoram Ranges. The Shyok river is a tributary of the Indus river. The average altitude of the valley is about 10,000 ft. i.e. 3048 metres above the sea level. The common way to access this valley is to travel over the Khardung La pass from Leh town. Foreign nationals are required to get a Protected area permit to visit the Nubra Valley. Since 1 April 2017 Indian citizens are also required to get an Inner Line Permit to visit the valley), The valley is famous for its forest of Hippophae shrub, popularly known as Leh Berry. It is within this shrub forest that one can spot the White-browed Tit-Warbler Leptopoecile sophiae. One can also spot the Tibetan Lark Melanocorypha maxima, Hume's Short-toed Lark Calandrella acutirostris, and Hume's Whitethroat Sylvia althaea. The various water birds like Ruddy Shelduck Tadorna ferruginea, Garganey Spatula querquedula, Northern Pintail Anas acuta, and Mallard Anas platyrhynchos can be observed on several small water bodies scattered along the route. Besides these, Charadriiformes like Black-tailed Godwit Limosa limosa, Common Sandpiper Actitis hypoleucos, Common Greenshank Tringa nebularia, Common Redshank Tringa totanus, Green Sandpiper Tringa ochropus, and Ruff Calidris pugnax can be spotted in Nubra. yet even there, in such a pristine wilderness the effects of their geo engineering is felt, and this isn't right, places that don't even have industry are suffering and global health is being effected, because of the greed of the few, its done to us to make the difference, its time to rise as, standardz, hahahahaha, :) #edio
