Goa is home to, and host to, several kinds of people, animals, birds, and other natural beauties like butterflies.
Falling in the tropical zone, Goa has several diverse habitats: the Western Ghats, forests, lakes, open fields, coastal areas- including beaches and mangroves. Each area is special in its own way and has a necessary ecological function. Together, they combine to make Goa a unique birdwatching site.
From the shy Painted Snipe to the social Magpie Robin, the drab Red-wattled lapwing to the resplendent Peacock, the omnipresent Cattle Egret to the rarer Indian Pita, the local Black Eagle to the immigrant Woolly-Necked Stork- They're all birds that birdwatchers have seen. With me.
So grab your bins and head to Goa! The birds are calling!
