Birding and Nature walk

Birding is perhaps the most popular reason why people visit Birds Murmur Camp. With its close proximity to the Salim Ali Birds Sanctuary, popularly known locally as the Thattekad Birds Sanctuary and the Edamalayar forest the Birds Murmur Camp is perhaps has the best location to explore the area. Rated by Dr Salim Ali as one the best bird sanctuaries in peninsular India the Thattekad Bird Sanctuary is a definite spot to visit for anyone interested in birding. The mixed vegetation, the mountains and the Periyar river makes it one of the bio diversity hotspots on the foothills of the western ghats. Though it does not cover a large area the bird sanctuary is the home to some rare and endemic species of birds. Our experienced in-house naturalists will be happy to take you to the sanctuary as they know the best spots for birding. The spots vary depending on the season and breeding patterns of the birds. We offer an hours complimentary birding session for our in-house guests in the areas near the Camp. For those interested in a serious session we can arrange visits into the sanctuary ( please check the cost details with our activity manager at the resort )
