I went bird watching at Ameenpur Lake yesterday with my son and we saw many types of birds. Ameenpur Lake is a huge lake and does not have any entry fee or any controls/fences. You can stroll along the banks and enjoy watching birds and butterflies. Here is the list of birds we could identify; there were more we could not identify.
