Bharatpur Birds Sanctuary
Bharatpur, Rajasthan
The Bharatpur Bird Sanctuary or the Keoladeo Ghana Bird Sanctuary, now, is home to storks and nearly every other kind of bird imaginable. The total land area of 29 sq km of birdland protects many different species, some common and a few exotic. However, don't expect the birds to wait and pose for the shutter to drop, you have to search for them amongst the foliage, swamp and grasslands; the quest often translating into a spirited game of hide 'n' seek!. The best way to sight them as they nest amongst the boughs and along the roadside is on foot or on a bicycle.
The Bharatpur Forest Lodge within the premises of the sanctuary offers an up close and personal stay. Faded interiors with nothing to write home about except the vantage location, which doesn't come cheap.
