A not to miss place when you visit Srirangapatna. A total of 170 species visit here. This is one of the 3 bird sanctuary of Karnataka. It is small yet worth visiting and well maintained. Clean and systematic. Saw many photographers, enthusiasts and student groups, one foreigner on my day of visit. Could really not locate birds except storks and sun bathing crocodiles all around.
