ENDEMICS OF ANDAMANS

Dates:
11th–18th February 2023

In the blue waters of the Bay of Bengal, east of mainland India is an archipelago of islands – the Andaman Islands. The Andaman group is famous for its endemic flora and fauna, which is why it is called the island of endemism. The islands have a heavy forest cover (over 85% of the area) and are a treat for nature lovers and enthusiasts. During the camp, we visit the island of Havelock as well. During the camp one can see endemics like Andaman Teal, Andaman Serpent Eagle, Andaman Coucal, to name a few. Other birds like Olive-backed Sunbird, Pacific Swallow, Edible-nest Swiftlet, Ruddy Kingfisher, Collared Kingfisher and Blue-eared Kingfisher may also be seen.
