Thattekad Via Munnar

Trip Report:
Started (Friday April 29) in my white Activa from Udumalpet --> Marayoor --> Munnar --> Adimali --> Kothamangalam ---> Perumbavoor. Next day in Kochi (April 30).

Last day (may 01) - Perumbavoor --> Kothamangalam --> Thattekad --> Kuttampuzha --> Urulanthanni --> Mamalakandam --> Adimali (via Irumbupalam)

Went in Salim Ali Trial (50 rs - 3km birding trial) with one Mr.Shibu, very experienced birder and watcher. Heard quite a lot of Chitranghadhan (Heart spotted woodpecker) and Theekakka (Trogon).

Highlights:
Malabar Gray Hornbills in 10s and lots of Trogons. Hill Keelback sighting was unexpected and lovely!

Other Comments:
From Thattekad, Urulanthanni route is must try. Well paved road via dense Sholas along Idamalayar. Absolute delight to drive in that route.
