Birds of Sri Lanka (Ceylon) 4 - Sri Lanka Tourism : Visit Sri Lanka 2011

This video is a collection of clips of birds captured in my backyard. The video location is about 1.5 km away from the Kandy town centre. This aim of this video is to entice Birdwatchers and Eco-Tourist from around the world to visit Sri Lanka. The clips were shot over a period of few hours, which is proof of the abundance of unspoilt nature in the little Island of Sri Lanka.

The video features the Stork-billed Kingfisher, Red-wattled Lapwing, Grey Heron, Great Egret, Pied Kingfisher, Loten's Sunbird, Plain Prinia, Scaly-breasted Munia, Pale-billed Flowerpecker and Greater Coucal.

Tourism is vital to the economy of Sri Lanka, specially since it is recovering from over three decades of war. Tourism would help to strengthen the Nations economy to usher in an era of Peace and Stability to small Island nation of very friendly, hospitable and smiling people. Sri Lanka has something to offer every Traveller and is undoubtedly "A Paradise of Diversity and Wonders". Year 2011 is the "Visit Sri Lanka Year".

Sri Lanka welcomes you all to an incredible experience!

You are welcome any time :-) There River Mahawali has just reached it's banks cause the Victoria reservoir is just about 3m below Spill-level, so there are tons of water birds, plus raptors and and all the resident and winter visitors. Udawattakale is just a hop step and a jump from where I live, and that place is famous for Birding too. I will go there after 15th this month, will post more then :-)
