Water-Birder's paradise!... for bird photography the best time is to visit in the morning between 6.30 AM and 8.30 AM, after which there is reduced activity and heat-haze. The road is narrow, so better to come in 2 wheeler, although cars can go through. As per regulars the best season is between November and March. I've gone there last March and had a great time. Was not lucky enough to spot any flamingos though. NOTE: Visitors please avoid dumbing plastics... like bottles. Only with our collective responsibility can we ensure this place remains clean and inviting for our winged beauties.
Zone humide de petite taille. Ideale pour une balade de fin d'apres-midi. Pas de moustique car la voie pedestre est degagee. Debut novembre, lors de ma visite, j'ai pu observe des herons, aigrettes, bee-eater, hirondelles, Martin-pecheurs, swamphen et Martin-triste. Le chemin est un peu monotone et sur du bitume, mais la balade reste agreable. Vous pouvez acceder a la zone humide depuis la grande route. Vous suivez le chemin jusqu'a une eglise puis demandez au passeur de vous menez sur l'autre rive. Cela vous coutera 10 INR.
Excellent place for bird watching and bird photography. Mornings and evenings suggested or else too hot as no trees around for shade. Bike or small vehicles better as narrow roads. Dont litter the place. Dont disturb birds Enjoy being with nature in the company of feathered friends.
This was an amazing place for birding. We saw so many varieties. And the drive is extremely scenic with water bodies on both sides of the road. Early morning we also caught the local fisherman getting their produce to see in small small centers. It was an hectic activity zone and the sunrise was just amazing. We spotted more than 30+ species with our naked eyes. This is a must visit place for nature lovers.
One of my favorite places for birding. I have visited the places in both seasons monsoon and winter. In monsoon you the bird species counts are less but in winter( Nov-Mar) you can see lot of species. The road there is narrow and not a pitch road. It's better to go by bike rather than by car.
Beautiful and serene place.
Superb morning in the Wetlands with a local bird club member. Reserve is literally teaming with so many species of waders
Best place for spending time in morning and evenings. Dont go in sunny time as there is no tree shades for taking rest.
