Birds of Akshi Beach
Akshi Beach, located along Maharashtra’s scenic Konkan coastline, is a vital wintering ground for migratory shorebirds and coastal species. This collection of bird photographs features striking images of Brown-headed Gulls, Curlew Sandpipers, Dunlins, Great Knots, Gull-billed Terns, and Lesser Black-backed Gulls, among others. Akshi’s mudflats, tidal pools, and sandy shores attract large flocks of waders like Kentish Plovers, Tibetan Sand Plovers, Little Stints, Ruddy Turnstones, and the agile Terek Sandpiper, making it a hotspot for birdwatchers and photographers seeking rare migratory visitors.
