Every year, more than three lakhs migratory birds from different parts of the world make it their wintering home. It holds the distinction of being one of the greatest conservation stories of the world, transforming a deadly poachers’ den to a protectors’ bird paradise, which has stood the test of time for more than thirty years.

After spending more than three hundred nights and ten thousand images later, this coffee table book stands a testament for showcasing Mangalajodi’s natural beauty and its conservation story to the wider world.
