We also saw some birds that looked like whoopoos - could they be or are they woodpeckers? And some sparrow like birds that had dark pink fronts - any suggestions? And lots of grebes

They were probably Hoopoes.
The choughs would be red-billed choughs.
The pink fronted birds would probably be red-fronted rosefinches.

Look out for the ibisbill. That is a bird exclusive to the Himalayas with a down-curved red bill like a curlew. We saw them in Assam.
