We have been residing in Pune for more that 6 years now. However, this magical place came to our knowledge recently. Kavadi Pat is a place located on Solapur highway near Hadapsar. The reason it is called blessing in disguise is inspite of not a hyped destination it is rated at par best places for birding in Maharashtra.
We visited this place thrice in months of November, December and January 2014 at different times to see check on different types birds we anticipated. We happened to spot different types of birds at different times. To our surprise, this place was the one where we could see almost all major species of birds that are sighted in Maharashtra.
Unfortunately, there is no awareness of the beauty this place exhibits at the adjacent locality. Because of which the place is not clean and loads garbage can be seen destroying the beauty of birds. People are seen littering and government has taken least cognizance of the same.
It's worth visiting this place again and again because it gives much more than one ever expects to witness!!!
