When do migratory birds visit India?

Many migratory birds arrive from late autumn through winter, roughly October to February, and leave by spring. Exact timing varies by species and place. Wetlands and coastal areas usually host the largest numbers. Check local birding groups for current sightings.

Plan winter trips to lakes and marshes in the early morning. Keep a respectful distance, avoid loud noise and never use flash. The birds have flown thousands of kilometres and need rest.
