Watch: Amidst Lockdown, Pink Flamingos Flood Water In Navi Mumbai

With humans locked inside their homes, incidents of animals taking over the streets have become a new; new. From mountain goats coming down from the mountains to the streets to snow leopard doing rounds in Uttrakhand, over the weeks, we have seen a lot.

And now, there is one more delighting incident of birds taking over the latkes to delight your weekend. Recently in Navi Mumbai, flamingos put on quite a show for the residents of Seawoods.

Residents from Seawoods recently shared videos of Flamingos enjoying their time in the lake and it is so peaceful to watch. Have a look:

Mysterious ways of Nature?

Mumbai backwaters, as seen from Seawoods Complex in Nerul.
Every year 100s of pink flamingos migrate to this spot.
But this year, numbers are truly spectacular.
It’s mystery, sitting 1000s of miles away, how did flamingos come to know about the change? pic.twitter.com/SZiVSH49j0

Sunil Agarwal, who is also an resident, shot the video and wrote, ‘With the full moon comes higher high tide which brings in more water and which attracts even more #Flamingos. The Talawe Wetlands & TS Chanakya Wetlands are part of this intertidal zone and not some man made water body. Please ask CIDCO & Urban development department to declare this area as Flamingo Sanctuary at the earliest as was discussed by us in January 2020 meeting’.

Many more users came forward to share such videos and their reaction to the same.

Nature lovers will live this sight. Flamingos have flooded this water body near Navi Mumbai. DYK They always prefer low levels of water, as those are the potential feeding grounds. This is a recent video, and a regular sight at this water body. pic.twitter.com/AfTsqu0wEz

Sir this is normal every year. @AUThackeray has promised to declare this area as Flamingo Sanctuary in January 2020 itself.

It is really so peaceful and delighting to watch the animals reclaiming the land, the sea and even the lake during the lockdown. We hope this remains the same even after the lockdown ends.
