Though the city reeling under severe heat and water crisis, Pallikaranai marshlands and smaller reservoirs are providing much-needed respite for birds. While Poondi, Red Hills, Chembarambakkam and Chozhavaram tanks have run dry, hundreds of flamingoes, black-winged stilts, Eurasian Coots and Cormorants have made Pallikaranai home.
Founder of Nature Trust Organisation TVRK Thiruvaranan said his organization had spotted 87 species of birds this summer. He further said flamingoes are often a sign of clean water.
