Neersagar birding on Easter Sunday

Commissioned in 1956, Neersagar Reservoir in Bedthi Valley (20 Kms from Hubli) is the source drinking water for Hubli and Kalghatgi.

The reservoir is one of the birding spots nearest to Hubli.

Although the spot has more than a fair share of birds. Sunday's birding apart from the common birds resulted only in a pair of Grey Frankolin, Purple Sunbirds and a Coppersmith Barbit.

The guard of the premises spoke about a flock of Peacocks that were seen after sunset. But on this day the peacocks were elusive.

Cheers until next time
