KOLLERU LAKE

KOLLERU LAKE is in Andhra Pradesh in India. It is a naturally formed fresh water lake in the country which is partly located in West Godavari District and partly in Krishna District.

Four decades back Kolleru lake used to be very colourful with 193 varieties of Birds, which migrate every year from October and return in March-April. Most of the birds visit Kolleru lake flying from distant countries like Egypt , Siberia , Philippines , Arabia, Australia , China etc and return to their Native countries with their offsprings.

Now many of the birds are not coming to kolleru lake due to polluted waters and also from shrinkage of water bed area.

Guda konga is the most familiar bird found here which is locally known as kolleti konga.
