Flamingo flocks spotted in April at Nandur Madhmeshwar, surprise visitors delight nature love

In a rare summer sighting, flocks of flamingos have arrived at Nandur Madhmeshwar Bird Sanctuary in Nashik district, popularly known as the ‘Bharatpur of Maharashtra’, bringing a splash of pink to the reservoir amid April’s scorching heat.

The sight is unusual for this time of the year, as flamingo congregations are typically associated with winter months.
