00:30We come here every year.
00:59This is the first time we have come to see the flamingos of this season.
01:06We are from Pune and we always go to Big One.
01:10But we have come very rarely to Big One.
01:12The number of flamingos here is amazing.
01:16And we are very happy to click flamingos.
01:20Actually, I am a bird photographer.
01:25It is always good to see birds.
01:29They are very small.
01:31But we go to their world and see their habitats.
01:36We see their different emotions.
01:39We are very lucky that a lot of migratory birds come to India this season.
01:48So we leave all our work and come here to see the birds.
01:54It is like meditation for us.
01:58The human encroachment has increased so much.
02:01Because real bird photographers never disturb the birds.
02:07They keep a very peaceful distance while taking pictures.
02:13But now visitors are increasing.
02:15There is an advantage and disadvantage of social media.
02:20Because of social media and awareness, people come here to see the flamingos.
02:27A lot of people come.
02:29It is good that even small children are learning.
02:32But they should keep their limits and see the birds.
02:38It feels very good.
02:39We come every year.
02:40Whenever we read in the newspaper that it is April, May, June.
02:46I think they start coming from the end of January.
02:49Then we come here with our family.
02:51We come every year.
02:52It feels good to see them.
02:54And we get a little relaxed.
02:56Flamingo city is known for the flamingos.
02:59But there is no use of it here.
03:02There is no infrastructure here.
03:04Wherever we stand today, you can see how unclean it is.
03:07It is said that the one who has it does not value it.
03:10If it was abroad, it would have been well infrastructured and developed as tourism.
03:15We have been coming here for the last 6 years.
03:18There is some development.
03:20There is no difference.
03:21Municipal corporations should work on it.
03:25Because people who come to this city say that it is a city for the 21st century.
03:31That is New Mumbai.
03:33So there should be some development.
03:35This is a God gift.
03:37We have so many birds, flamingos.
03:41This is a God gift.
03:42They should preserve this.
