Bird Watching
|
| In
today’s world watching birds and listening
to their sweet melodious songs as part of
our daily life has become impossible - thanks
to our ever increasing concrete jungles. The
only way out is visiting bird sanctuaries.
We can not only see the local birds but as
an added bonanza we get to see various rare
birds too. |
|
| The
Bird Sanctuaries like the Thattekad Bird Sanctuary
and Karnala Bird Sanctuary, provide our ears
with the much needed relief from the daily
noise pollution. A real paradise for ornithologists,
these bird sanctuaries are home not only for
resident birds but also for migratory birds. |
