Two rare migratory shrike species, the Red-backed Shrike and Red-tailed Shrike, were recorded for the first time in Himachal Pradesh at Pong Lake. Noted birder and researcher Dr. Abhinav Chaudhary documented these sightings in September in the Nagrota Surian area. Both immature birds were identified after expert verification due to their similar plumage to other shrikes like the Isabelline Shrike. These findings highlight Pong Lake's importance as a migratory stopover in the north-western Himalaya.
