  • Nesting in Paradise Bird Watching in Gujarat
    Nesting in Paradise Bird Watching in Gujarat Tourism Corporation of Gujarat Limited Toll Free : 1800 200 5080 | www.gujarattourism.com Designed by Sobhagya Why is Gujarat such a haven for beautiful and rare birds? The secret is not hard to find when you look at the unrivalled diversity of eco- Merry systems the State possesses. There are the moist forested hills of the Dang District to the salt-encrusted plains of Kutch district. Deciduous forests like Gir National Park, and the vast grasslands of Kutch and Migration Bhavnagar districts, scrub-jungles, river-systems like the Narmada, Mahi, Sabarmati and Tapti, and a multitude of lakes and other wetlands. Not to mention a long coastline with two gulfs, many estuaries, beaches, mangrove forests, and offshore islands fringed by coral reefs. These dissimilar but bird-friendly ecosystems beckon both birds and bird watchers in abundance to Gujarat. Along with indigenous species, birds from as far away as Northern Europe migrate to Gujarat every year and make the wetlands and other suitable places their breeding ground. No wonder bird watchers of all kinds benefit from their visit to Gujarat's superb bird sanctuaries. Chhari Dhand Chhari Dhand Bhuj Chhari Dhand Conservation Reserve: The only Conservation Reserve in Gujarat, this wetland is known for variety of water birds Are you looking for some unique bird watching location? Come to Chhari Dhand wetland in Kutch District. This virgin wetland has a hill as its backdrop, making the setting soothingly picturesque. Thankfully, there is no hustle and bustle of tourists as only keen bird watchers and nature lovers come to Chhari Dhand.

  • The Relationships of the Silky Flycatchers
    THE RELATIONSHIPS OF THE SILKY FLYCATCHERS CI-IARLES G. SIBLE¾ THE silky flycatchersinclude the generaPtilogonys, Phainopepla, and Phainoptila,which are usuallytreated either as a family, Ptilogonatidae (e.g. Wetmore 1960), or as a subfamily of the waxwing family Bomby- cillidae (e.g. Greenway1960). Someauthors have includedthe Palm Chat (Dulus dominicus)of Hispaniola and the Grey Hypocolius (Hypocolius ampelinus) of Iraq and Iran in the Bombycillidae (Arvey 1951, Mayr and Amadon1951). Othershave consideredsome of theseallocations to be tentative or unproved and have recognizedseparate families for some or all of these groups (e.g. Wetmore 1960, Greenway 1960). The silky flycatchersare confinedto North and Central America. The Phainopepla(Phainopepla nitens) occursin the arid and semiaridregions of the southwestern United States and in Mexico south to Puebla and Vera Cruz. The Gray Silky Flycatcher (Ptilogonyscinereus) is a montane speciesranging from northwesternand easternMexico to Guatemala. The Long-tailedSilky Flycatcher(P. caudatus)and the Black-and-yellowSilky Flycatcher (Phainoptilamelanoxantha) are eachendemic to the highlands of Costa Rica and western Panama. This paper reviews some of the taxonomichistory and charactersof the silky flycatchersand presentsnew evidencefrom studies of the egg- white proteins indicating that they are closely related to the genus Myadestes,the solitaires,of the thrushfamily Turdidae. The two species of the genusEntomodestes of northwesternSouth America may be part of this natural cluster,but their egg whites have not been available for comparison. TAXONOMIC H•STOR¾ or THE S•LK¾ FLYCATCHERS AND A•;L•ES Ptilogonyscinereus, the first of the group to be discovered,was described by Swainsonin 1824. Swainsonalso describedthe Phainopepla (1837), which he placed in Ptilogonys.

  • AERC Wplist July 2015
    AERC Western Palearctic list, July 2015 About the list: 1) The limits of the Western Palearctic region follow for convenience the limits defined in the “Birds of the Western Palearctic” (BWP) series (Oxford University Press). 2) The AERC WP list follows the systematics of Voous (1973; 1977a; 1977b) modified by the changes listed in the AERC TAC systematic recommendations published online on the AERC web site. For species not in Voous (a few introduced or accidental species) the default systematics is the IOC world bird list. 3) Only species either admitted into an "official" national list (for countries with a national avifaunistic commission or national rarities committee) or whose occurrence in the WP has been published in detail (description or photo and circumstances allowing review of the evidence, usually in a journal) have been admitted on the list. Category D species have not been admitted. 4) The information in the "remarks" column is by no mean exhaustive. It is aimed at providing some supporting information for the species whose status on the WP list is less well known than average. This is obviously a subjective criterion.

  • Wildlife Middle East News Bird Ringing Programme in Bahrain 2005-2010
    Wildlife Middle East News VOLUME 5 ● ISSUE 4 ● MARCH 2011 ● ISSN 1990-8237 Bird ringing programme in Bahrain 2005-2010 Brendan Kavanagh, RCSI-Medical University of Bahrain, Po Box 15503, Adliya, Bahrain. Introduction Individually marking birds is a scientific technique used throughout Europe and North America since the earliest years of the last century. In the earlier years of ringing in Great Britain, recording movements of Woodcock Scolopax rusticola, on the Duke of Cumberland’s estate at Alnwick was begun when individual birds were caught alive and fitted with a metal ring in 1891. The inscription on the ring was the letter N and the year of ringing (Greenwood, 2009, et cit). Over one hun- dred years later we now have hundreds of ringing schemes covering all the continents and today, the data gathered are still providing valuable information on movements, longevity, mortality and morphology of countless numbers of bird spe- cies globally. In the beginning the primary role of ringing birds was to try to find out where birds such as swallows Hirunda rustica, went to in winter. Earlier folklore suggested that they overwintered in mud on the banks of rivers and lakes (much like hibernating frogs, Rana temporaria), emerging in spring each year. News of ringed birds reported from South Africa in winter, surprised and delighted the new generation of scientists of the time, (Coiffait and Clark 2009). The analytical techniques surrounding bird ringing have also developed in complexity over the past century. In addition to monitoring movements (distance, direction and duration), modern methods of analysis are used to elucidate patterns of distribution and abundance, dispersal and mortality factors which in turn are helping to build models of population dy- namics for bird species.
