The brimming irrigation tanks have attracted thousands of birds
The 12th edition of Tamirabharani Waterbird Count (TWC), an annual exercise jointly conducted by environmental outfits in Tirunelveli, Tenkasi and Thoothukudi district after the end of the northeast monsoon, will begin on January 21.
Thanks to the active northeast monsoon, the brimming irrigation tanks, including Koonthankulam, Kazhuvurkulam and Nainarkulam in Tirunelveli, Vaagaikulam in Tenkasi and Chettikulam in Thoothukudi, have attracted thousands of winged visitors, which have started nesting.

The highlight of every edition of the Whitefield Art Collective is the Kala Car, an exhibit that showcases the creative and artistic prowess of art students. Over the years, this clever play on words has titled vehicles that have either been rescued from the scrap yard or sponsored or auctioned or all of the above.
