The birdwatchers quest:through the Swamp of Royal Treasure–Muturajawela Wetlands

It is a fascinating activity for those who love bird watching in the beautiful natural environment. Muthurajawela wetland bears over 194 species of flora, distributed over seven major vegetation types which includes marsh, lactic flora, shrub land, reed, swamp, grasslands, stream bank and mangrove forest. Muthurajawela wetland is not home to only birds but also many species of fish, reptiles, and mammals including nationally endangered species. Guidance by an experienced birding guide/naturalist makes this even more special and inspiring. Ideal day excursion to be done either from Colombo or Negombo as it’s located in close proximity to both cities. Opportunity to interact with the local fishing community.
