BWS conducted a bird walk at Safari Park with students from Kolkata schools. Students from South Point School, Kolkata along with their teachers and DPS Newtown students along with their parents attended the walk under the guidance of BWS members. Field scopes, binoculars were taken by BWS members. As whole, around 50 people were present in the walk.

The park’s actual name is Banabitan Biodiversity Park, an urbanized park located at the centre of the Salt Lake area in Kolkata. It’s a natural habitat for many species of birds and butterflies. As per earlier records, roughly 60 odd bird species are resident, and quite a few migrant birds visit the park in winter and monsoon

As we moved well inside the gardens, away from the noise & hustle bustle of the city, we were wrapped up with the tweets & chirps of the birds.
Led by Mr. Sujan Chatterjee & Major Parihar & others of BWS team we were transported into a different world. With the high powered scope on tripods, we were very cordially shown the umpteen species of birds, as close a view like sitting across the table.

BWS organised a public Bird Walk in Newtown, Rajarhat on Sunday, the 18th of June 2023. The walk was organised around the Diplomatic Enclave area where 2 waterbodies are present. Volunteers were there with binoculars, spotter scopes and field guide to help enthusiastic citizens
