It is located on the island town Srirangapatna of Mandya District surrounded by river Cauvery flowing from 4 sides of the town and popularly called as island town with historical temples and monuments. Ranganthittu was declared as Bird sanctuary after the survey conducted by the ornithologist Dr. Salim Ali, who is honourably known as “father of Birds and birdman of India".
This place is home to many species of birds flying from corners of the globe for breeding in the small tiny islands formed by the flowing Cauvery River. Roughly there are about 175 species of Birds which nests here during monsoon and post monsoon and this place also called Pakshi Kashi of Karnataka.
It is an perfect offbeat place for the Visitors who like spent their time sighting the birds alongside us and enjoy the time boating in the flowing waters of Cauvery to see the birds and their nests very closely nesting on the islands and also one spot many crocks in the water resting on the islands and mountain formations on the water.
The best time to visit this place is from October to March post monsoon season to enjoy the bird watching and spending time in the sanctuary, the problem in monsoon is when the water currents will be very high as due to heavy rains water from KRS dam flows through this place making it flooded and hence the boating will be temporarily stopped.
Birds that are commonly spotted here are partridges, white ibises, herons, spoonbills and painted storks Which nest here for months and also you can see some seasonal birds of Africa which nest here to breed in the monsoon.
Also there is many places nearby which is frequently visited by our clients for exploring the historical monuments and pilgrimage centre’s like the historical Ranganatha swamy Temple of ancient time, Nimishamba temple near to banks of River Cauvery, Tippu’s historical monuments and dooms, also you can visit the city of palaces-Mysore City.
