Wings Over Water: Birding in Odisha
Odisha unfolds along the eastern coastline of India, where mangrove jungles, tiger forests, lagoons, and ancient temples tell stories of wildlife, wilderness, and history. From floating through Bhitarkanika’s crocodile-draped estuaries to watching turtles mass-nest at Gahirmatha, and from birding the Chilika lagoon to hiking the waterfalls of Simlipal, Odisha is a place where nature and culture meet in dramatic, unexpected ways. This is a journey of water, wilderness, and wind where every turn feels alive.
