Why? Sri Lanka special
From Storks and Waders to The Brahminy Kite, with its chestnut body and white head and chest, is a common sight across Sri Lanka. It thrives in coastal lagoons, wetlands, mangroves, rivers, and paddy fields, often perching in tall trees like this one. Look for it near Yala, Bundala, and the southern coast.
