I had gone to Ranganathittu which is near Mysore, around 5 to 6 times before and seen variety of birds. I saw their habitat and loved the nature and it is a very beautiful location.
But this trip was very different from any previous visits, using DSLR, I could see them with lots of details and amazed. Wov, I never knew the birds are so beautiful and colorful when I look through these lens. Their feathers, eyes, legs, colors, God is really great. ! How amazing, how did he decide to give such colors to these birds. How did these birds get their beautiful feathers.....
Look at my main blog for all the other details, planning, nearby places ...etc. Ranganathittu is a day trip from Bangalore and very close to Mysore. Below are the links to these blogs which has all details.
Best Season: November to March.
