Pulicate lake Birds Sanctuary during a pleasant drizzling evening - 7 December 2013





Pulicat Lake Bird Sanctuary is located 100 kms from Chennai, enroute to Sriharikota. From Chennai you have to take the highway towards Nellore. At Sullurpet bypass you have there will be a direction board to Sriharikota . Take right in Sullurpet junction and travel towards Sriharikota Rocket Launching station. The inland lake would be divided by the road. So it is happy watching the waters and birds from road side. Information Centre by Forest Department of Andhra Pradesh is on the right side just adjacent to the Venadu Island Road. 


















A drive on the road with excellent breeze and migratory birds on either side gives us a pleasant scenery. 

I have identified few birds - Flamingo, Painted Stork,Grey Heron, Grey Pelican, Egrets, Whistling Ducks, Indian Shag.







































Dawn and Dusk are the right time to watch these birds.

Packed food and snacks including water should accommodate your bag pack.
