This July saw a dramatic divergence from our historical records. In stark contrast to the absent or significantly lower rainfall in previous Julys (2022-2025), this year's deluge fostered an explosion of biodiversity. Our sensors detected an impressive 115 bird species, with a total of 20,550 individual detections. The Ashy Prinia, a common yet delightful resident, emerged as the most active species, its cheerful chirps a constant soundtrack to our rainy days. The average temperature hovered around a pleasant 24.9°C, a comfortable range amidst the heightened humidity, and the AQI, consistently low between 11 and 28, offered clear skies between downpours for our feathered friends to thrive.
