There used to be a time when one could see several birds of various varieties flying abundantly around Visakhapatnam. Now, we rarely see these birds due to the noise, smoke, and pollution, as well as the rapid urban development taking place here. This is where bird sanctuaries come into play. They protect and provide shelter to the bewildering creatures during the migratory period. South India has always been known for its historical monuments, majestic rivers, temple architecture, and landscapes. However, the bird sanctuaries of South India are yet to climb the popular tourist spot charts, though they are certainly a sight for sore eyes. These popular bird sanctuaries in South India are perfect to connect with nature, picturesque landscapes, lush green mountains, and calm water bodies.
Here is a list of the most popular bird sanctuaries in South India.
Situated around the banks of Lake Vembanad in Kottayam, Kerala, the Kumarakom Bird Sanctuary covers up to 14 hectares of land. With its perfect division of lush greenery and calm waters, the Kumarakom Bird Sanctuary offers some of the most scenic sights to enjoy. Keep in mind that June to August is perfect for bird watching. Be sure to get on the boat ride for the best experience.
