Why October here
The Doyang river and reservoir: the Amur falcon roost, boating water and hydro country.
The Doyang flows out of the hills through Wokha district to a reservoir behind the hydro dam: in October-November it is the legendary Amur falcon roost (the story that changed Nagaland’s conservation law), and year-round it is quiet water, banks and boat country.
What to do
Falcon dusk
