A word about our birding destination. Osman Sagar was created by damming the Musi River in 1920, to provide an additional source of drinking water for Hyderabad It was constructed during the reign of the last Nizam of Hyderabad State, Osman Ali Khan, hence the name.
So do come and enjoy birding by the water. Lift seekers and lift givers may please get in touch with me at 9949038532 so that I can coordinate car pooling to reduce our carbon footprint. Carry snacks, water and rain gear ( optimistically speaking ) and do bring your children along for this half a day’s joyful bird outing.
