Is Goa, India safe for birding alone with a camera? (1 Viewer)

Hello,

I’m going to visit Goa state of India for birding purpose for a week in November. I am thinking to use public transport mostly to make my trip as cheap as possible. But I will take taxi probably sometimes for the places that can not be reached by public transport. Also I will carry Olympus mirrorless camera with a telephoto lens on my neck. Is GOA safe for birding alone with a telephoto camera?

I guess Goa is not as popular as it once was.

I grew up in Goa and still have a home there. I would say it is very safe to bird alone with a camera. The crime (usually petty) happens mostly along the beaches in North Goa.
