Yellow-Bellied Prinia : Birds of Basai wetland

  • 9 years ago
The yellow-bellied prinia (Prinia flaviventris) is a species of bird in the Cisticolidae family. It is found in the Indian Subcontinent and much of Southeast Asia. It ranges across Brunei, Cambodia, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, and Vietnam.

Basai wetland:
It is within 10 minutes of Sultanur Bird Sanctuary, and is on a narrow road leading into the fields. However, during the winter season, you can find the most amazing migratory populations here. The whole of wetland has been created through water getting stalled in these fields and attracting thousands of migratory birds. Since the place is pretty remote, with almost no people movement in the area (only farmers going back and forth), it is an ideal spot for the birds.

This is a must visit during winters and is one of the only places nearby where there is a good chance of catching the resident Sarus Cranes
