Tiruvidaimarudur Conservation Reserve, Bird sanctuary in Thanjavur, India
The Tiruvidaimarudur Conservation Reserve spans 2.84 hectares within a Siva temple compound, providing nesting grounds for numerous bird species.
Established on February 14, 2005, this location marked a milestone as the first Conservation Reserve designated in India under new wildlife protection legislation.
The reserve represents successful cooperation between Tamil Nadu Forest Department and local villagers who actively protect the bird populations in their community.
Located 10 kilometers from Kalakkad Mundanthurai Tiger Reserve, the sanctuary houses 400 birds including little egrets, pond herons, and painted storks.
Twenty century-old trees, including maruthu, mahwa, neem, and illuppai species, create natural nesting spaces near the Thamirabarani River and agricultural fields.
