Sri Lanka is a true paradise for bird watchers and wildlife photographers, offering an unparalleled diversity of avian life within a compact, easily accessible landscape. Despite its small size, the island is home to over 500 recorded bird species, including 34 endemic species found nowhere else on Earth. From the lush rainforests of Sinharaja to the dry scrublands of Yala and the misty highlands of Horton Plains, Sri Lanka's varied ecosystems create the perfect environment for a wide range of birdlife.
What sets Sri Lanka apart is not just its bird diversity, but the incredible opportunities for close, clear sightings and photography. Many bird species are remarkably approachable, allowing photographers to capture intimate moments in natural light and vibrant surroundings. Seasonal migrations add even more excitement, as thousands of migratory birds arrive from distant lands between November and March.
