Housing more than 200 resident and wintering bird species, Chennai (formerly known as Madras) has long been a haven for bird watchers. It is the one of the few urban areas in India with diverse range of birds including greater flamingo, black baza, osprey, Indian eagle-owl, Coppersmith barbet, Spot billed pelican and pied avocet can be seen. The following are some known birding hotspots in and around Chennai.

This is the home of all birds, A place where all kinds of exotic birds come and go

This is a best place for Nature Photographers ( Especially different kind of birds ). Its actually a small shelter which has a small stone seat for sitting, keep your belongings and for some short stops during travelling. This point located on the left side of the road just before a small bridge (when traveling towards pallavarm).Highly recommended for photography, Especially Evening sunset is seems to be great to enjoy at this particular point. But there will be no space to park your vehicle so you have to park on the roadside itself and that wont be an issue.

Beautiful natureWonderful sight to see exotic birds flocking

Government can take lil more initiative to make this place a tourist hot spot..we can see ppl littering on both the sides of the place

Its a road side view

Calm place for thinking 🤔

It would be better if there were seating arrangements done for senior peoples.

One of the best places to get a visual treat for the Nature Lovers. It is also a great place to learn photography which stimulates your photogenic view of nature. Great time to visit is between 5 am to 7 am and 5pm to 6:30 pm.
