One of the largest brackish water lakes in Asia, Chilka is a kind of star on the birdwatching scene in India. It is home to more than 850 species of birds including migratory water fowls that come here from places as far away as Siberia. Look out for white-bellied sea eagles and marsh harriers. One of the most popular tourist destinations of Odisha, the Chilika Lake (actually a lagoon) is home to a large number of resident birds. Head here during winter when migratory birds such as flamingos, come down. Mangalajodi has basic accommodation and Odisha Tourism Development Corporation runs tourist lodges around the lake.
