    Very nice video brother!!! Great effort........ I have 2 questions : 1, only through boat we can go there know? What was the charge for a boat ride to & fro.......2, how you came to know all the species name, you already know or how do you find out ??

    • @photographerskit
      @photographerskit  Před rokem +1

      Thanks Sharon. You need to hire the entire boat regardless of how many people are there (max 7-8 people), and they will charge around 2.5-3k per trip, which will be for 4hrs.
      I have been doing birding for a while, hence I know many species. The ones which are new, I either check with other birders or google to find out more about them

      When you are going towards Sriharikota, there is a main left which you need to take and keep looking around for these flamingos, I don’t have the exact GPS but if you are taking the left (main road type), you should find this place

      Post December. If you want to shoot Flemingos, you absolutely need a 400mm minimum
