Trekking
through the lush vegetable, fruit and spice garden, as one approachesIndia's longest laterite sculpture, a whole section of the thickly
wooded hill untouched and untrod upon by humans is inhabited by a
vibrant selection of birds.

habitat where a wide variety of local and exotic birds fly in. Among
the well-known species are the Kingfisher, Bulbul, Crane, Owl, Pigeon,
Koel, Myan, Parakeet, Wagtail, Woodpecker, Gold throat, Weaverbird,
Crow Pheasant, commoner Babbler, wild fowl, Golden Oriole, Partridge,
