Nandi Hills, Bangalore

Nandi Hills  is located in the Chikkaballapur district of Karnataka state. It is approximately 60 km from the city of Bangalore. It is my favourite birding place. Every time I visit this place it never fails to amaze me. During winter months you can find lots of migratory birds from Himalaya. I have been visiting this place from last 8 years and recorded so many species. Please see my checklist and album.​​
