Wadhwana Wetlands
 

Wadhwana Wetlands, located in Gujarat, India, is a man-made wetland originally created as an irrigation reservoir. Over time, it has evolved into a significant ecological zone, attracting a rich diversity of bird species, including numerous migratory birds during the winter months. Birdwatchers flock to this site to observe species such as flamingos, pelicans, and various species of ducks. The wetlands play a crucial role in the local environment, helping to maintain the regional water balance and providing habitats for numerous aquatic and terrestrial species. The area's relatively flat landscape is interspersed with large bodies of water fringed by reeds and other wetland vegetation. Besides its ecological importance, it also serves as a place of leisure and education for visitors who are keen to learn about wetland ecosystems and bird conservation efforts. Accessibility to the site is favorable, with several trails and viewpoints established along the wetland perimeter.
