Thanks for starting this article. Quick question: Is this the same as "Atapaka Bird Sanctuary"? That article does not have coordinates, so it's harder to figure out what it refers to. If they are the same, I suggest adding "Atapaka" as an alt-name to this article and merging content from the other, as the references seem better to this name (Kolleru) at the Forestry Department article.

Atapaka is a small village in Kolleru Lake and it has a watch tower to see Birds of Kolleru Lake and the Lake has many watch towers in different villages. All these watch towers including Atapaka were parts of Kolleru Bird Sanctuary.WP MANIKHANTA ^Talk 02:57, 19 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
