I had the opportunity to participate in bird survey in newly ordained Srivilliputhur-Meghamalai Tiger reserve, which was once Grizzled Squirrel Sanctuary. I covered the Kovilaru Dam near Koomapatti, Watrap Taluk. Vegetation was dry but dense thorny deciduous forests, making the birds only to be heard, rarely seen.

Highlight observation is observing 6 Blue faced Malkohas in the same tree!

I have added my observations from the trip here:
