Saman Bird Sanctuary is located near village Saman in Karhal tehsil of Mainpuri district in the state of Uttar Pradesh.

For all the bird lovers out there, we have a special treat in store for you! Say hello to the Saman Bird Sanctuary, a protected Ramsar site in the western region of Uttar Pradesh. This 5 square kilometer haven for our feathery friends is not just a place for bird watching, it’s a place where nature and adventure come together to create a unique experience.

From the majestic Sarus Cranes to the mischievous Magpie Robins, this sanctuary has a wide variety of bird species that you won’t find anywhere else.

The best time to visit is between November and February, when the birds are in full swing. And if you’re lucky, you might even spot some Jackals, Mongooses, and Hares, who call the sanctuary home.

But the real gem of the sanctuary is the contribution made by local wildlife photographer and birding enthusiast, Mr. Shashank Raghav. Born and raised in Mainpuri, he has made it his mission to share the beauty of his hometown with the world. During his birding expeditions, he has come across some rare species like the Black Necked Stork and the Egyptian Vulture, adding to the already rich avian diversity of the area.

And let’s not forget the Indian Grey Hornbill, Lineated Barbet, and the Asian Openbill. These beautiful birds are not commonly found in this region, making Saman Bird Sanctuary an even more unique and special place.

The presence of the Sarus Crane has earned it a special symbol status in the logo of “Clean Mainpuri Beautiful Mainpuri,” showcasing the significance of the sanctuary for this magnificent creature. So, come and discover the wonders of Saman Bird Sanctuary and experience the magic of nature like never before!
