It is not inevitable that all birds will be seen at the same time when on a safari, as some of them fly around at different times. It's a jungle, not a zoo when you're visiting. The animals are free to roam around at home and can freely move to and from. The area has developed into a birding hotspot lately thanks to countless birding enthusiasts. Several cottages offer bird naturalist services. Local guides too are highly familiar and help you identify tons of bird species.

Birding Safari in Kanha National Park

It is a birding paradise for birders and bird watchers will love the presence of unique birds in the company. The adorable view of birds in isolation is also fantastic to look at. In Kanha National Park, there are 295 species of birds in the jungle. You should not spare the opportunity of having a bird sighting inside the park and photographing them. 

Throughout the year except for monsoon season, we can enjoy birding in both core zones and buffer zones. Jungle safari to core and buffer zone can make your sighting easy. 

Birding is also feasible at buffer forests, nearby rivers, farming fields, local foliage in lodges property, local village ways, agricultural farms, etc. You can do birding and photography without a safari but if you want to be unique and make your Instagram feed class apart then booking a safari would be a wise decision to meet unique species of birds. 

If you are not aware of the birds and their species then you can take the help of a naturalist to guide you about the birds.
