A walk Through Karnala Bird Sanctuary - Being there with my kid of 1 year old , I was not that able to explore all the trails deeply. We reached the place almost by 3.30 pm. Evening time was quite good to reach there as temperature was quite adequate to walk through the sanctuary and feel the breeze flowing. Was not see any sort of birds in the woods. But my baby was able to walk through the roads and was happy to see the monkeys roaming. As i saw the happiness of my baby. I would say the place was ok. 👍 Other than that , nothing much.
