Maharashtra: Bird Sanctuary Sunrise Bird Photography With Transfers

  • Pune
  • • Walking Experience
  • • Duration 3 hour

Description

Experience an early-morning bird photography outing around the Bhigwan wetland and Ujani Backwaters, one of Maharashtra's important waterbird habitats.

The Bhigwan wetland developed around the Ujani reservoir and is particularly known for winter congregations of migratory waterbirds, including Greater Flamingos, ducks, waders, ibis and storks.

Begin around sunrise when the softer morning light and active birdlife create favourable conditions for observation and photography.

A local bird guide helps guests identify birds, understand their behaviour and choose suitable observation locations while maintaining a respectful distance from wildlife.

The experience is designed for bird photography and nature observation, not guaranteed sightings of any particular species. Bird numbers and species vary according to season, water levels and local conditions.
