Bird Watching
A Glimpse into the Avian World Around Nuga:
The central highlands of Sri Lanka, particularly the areas we inhabit, are renowned for their biodiversity, and birds are no exception. You can expect to encounter a fascinating mix of species, from vibrant resident birds that call these hills home year-round to unique endemics found nowhere else on earth.
Keep an eye out for common yet captivating residents like the Yellow-fronted Barbet with its striking colors and distinctive call, the melodious Black-headed Oriole, and the energetic Common Myna. You might also spot various species of sunbirds flitting amongst the blossoms, their iridescent feathers catching the sunlight.
We're thrilled to share that our property is home to some truly magnificent species you've recently captured:
