Best Places for Bird Watching in Lonavala

Bird watching is an incredibly relaxing activity. Not only do you tend to learn and delve deep into the lives and ecosystems of our furry friends, but it is also a test of skill, patience, and the ability that one needs to spend quiet and quality time with oneself only. Bird watching also entails the viewing and documenting of rare specimens and not the usual domestic birds that one can see daily such as sparrows, crows, and pigeons. couple resorts in lonavalaresort near lonavalaresorts near Mumbai.

You quite clearly need to be in the same habitat as the birds that find it comfortable to be there. They are best viewed in an environment where they are at their most comfortable and that is when they are amid their natural habitat and are undisturbed and not spooked out by human misadventure.  treehouse resort in Maharashtranature resorts in Lonavala resorts near Lonavalatreehousetree house resort Lonavala.
