Greens express concern over sand-mining at estuary
Environmentalists and birdwatchers were excited to discover a good number of blue-cheeked bee-eaters nesting in a heap of sand close to the Thottappally harbour, probably for the first time in this part of the region, in May-June 2020.
They were so thrilled that members of the Green Roots Nature Conservation Forum, a conservation group based at Thottappally, raised a temporary fence around the pile of sand to protect some 35 nests and 70 birds.
This year too the migratory birds have come to Thottappally, but are fewer in number with environmentalists raising concerns over the ongoing “indiscriminate” mineral sand-mining at the estuary.
