Bird Hide - Bangalore

Image
The weekend before school started my father and I visited a bird hide close to Bangalore which has a wide variety of birds and reptiles. The hide is close to my house and hardly took an hour and a half to reach. The hide is on barren land, a part of which was converted by the owner into the hide.This sort of photography was a new and interesting experience for me and I thoroughly enjoyed it. We saw over fifteen species of birds in the two and a half hours we spent over there. The area around the hide has a rain fed river because of which  birds like the Jerdon's Leafbird and the Coppersmith Barbet visit the hide.
