Every winter, a breathtaking event occurs in Navi Mumbai as flocks of flamingos and seagulls arrive, transforming the coastal wetlands with their vibrant colors.
The migratory journey typically begins in November and lasts until the spring-summer months.
Recent footage showcases these birds gracefully moving in the lagoons, drawing attention from tourists and bird watchers eager to witness the phenomenon.
Flamingos are primarily feasting on algae in the wetlands, which flourished due to reduced pollution from untreated sewage.
The population of flamingos frequenting Mumbai has surged from 10,000 in 2007 to an estimated 130,000 in 2023.
