    Sounds like Velavadar will give you the richer fauna haul, especially if you’re after that 140 plus bird count and the chance to see wolves or hyenas. If you do decide on the lake, the main wildlife draw is a few deer and occasional waterfowl, so you might want to plan a quick return to Bhavnagar for a night at Iscon The Fern Resort & Spa to recharge before heading back. Are you thinking of a specific season for the trip?
