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.
