If Nitya Aggarwal ,known among the Flamingo watchers of Mumbai had not insisted me to visit the Karnala Bird Sanctuary ,just 60 km from Mumbai on the Mumbai Goa road (12 km from Panvel ) I would have missed the opportunity of seeing a lovely green habitat during the best season for the birders from November to February. I was there in the morning of 3rd January 2019.
It is the tourist destination for Mumbaikars . Some go for trekking to the Fort at the top of the hill and others go as picnikers for distressing and for bird watching.
