Hi Wild Goans! Southern Birdwing will conduct another "Wild Goa" natural history field trip to the Cumbarjua mangroves by boat on 28 April, Sunday. This is the penultimate trip by boat. Our recent sojourn to the cumbarjua produced excellent sightings of Peregrine Falcon, Osprey, Brahminy Kite, Blackheaded Ibis, Woolynecked Stork, Night heron, Green Heron, Slatybreasted rail, Whitebellied sea-eagle, Blue-tailed bee-eater, and varoius species of kingfisher like the storkbilled kingfisher, blackcapped kingfisher, lesser pied kingfisher and even the rare collared kingfisher ! A few crocodiles and the common jackal were also spotted . As part of a serious committment towards nature conservation, this trip will also include the planting of mangrove saplings along the banks to conserve the declining mangrove cover. The trip will commence at 7 30 am from the fuel pump at the Cortalim ferry point and end at approximately 12 15 noon. Participants will be charged Rs 125 per person. Those interested in joining up can contact email us at [EMAIL PROTECTED] to confirm their participation. Only those who confirm their participation by email or phone will be admitted, as there are limited seats.
