On Saturday October 29,2016, a big flock of around 2000 Greater Flamingoes were sighted by MNS member Subbu and his group of three, off ECR and Kelambakkam backwaters around 4 p.m.
"The first group around 1500 birds were flying North, North-east from our location on ECR towards Tiruvanmiyur/Besant Nagar. They returned and joined another group of 500 birds over Kelambakkam and then flew off south and were not seen again.
A lone injured Flamingo was also observed at a great distance. "
