Visitors to Bac Lieu Bird Reserve can observe the birds through different stages of life, from egg laying to nest building. Some birds build concealed nests to fool predators and increase the life expectancy of their young.
Moreover, the rich flora and fauna gives the lush, natural area a feeling of wonder. Bac Lieu Bird Sanctuary is a favorite destination of both nature lovers and researchers and visitors to easily find several types of birds listed in Viet Nam’s “Red Book” of endangered species of plants and animals. The area is also popular for photographers coming here to take shots of the breathtakingly beautiful birds.
The best time to visit Bac Lieu Bird Sanctuary is in the early morning when most birds leave their nests to begin a day of feeding. Alternatively, at sunset, the birds can also be seen more easily as they return to their nests to sleep, flocks of bird fly one after another. This is the ideal moment of enjoying the most spectacular landscape of the sanctuary.
