  • Sustainable Conservation and Management of Indian Sarus Crane (Grus Antigone Antigone) in and Around Alwara Lake of District Kaushambi (U.P.), India
    ISSN:150 2394-1391 Indian Journal of Biology Volume 5 Number 2, July - December 2018 Original Article DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.21088/ijb.2394.1391.5218.7 Sustainable Conservation and Management of Indian Sarus crane (Grus antigone antigone) in and around Alwara Lake of District Kaushambi (U.P.), India Ashok Kumar Verma1, Shri Prakash2 Abstract The Indian Sarus crane, Grus antigone antigone is the only resident breeding crane of Indian subcontinent that has been declared as ‘State Bird’ by the Government of Uttar Pradesh. This is one of the most graceful, monogamous, non-migratory and tallest flying bird of the world that pair for lifelong and famous for marital fidelity. Population of this graceful bird now come in vulnerable situation due to the shrinking of wetlands at an alarming speed in the country. Present survey is aimed to study the population of sarus crane in the year 2017 in and around the Alwara Lake of district Kaushambi (Uttar Pradesh) India and their comparison to sarus crane population recorded from 2012 to 2016 in the same study area. This comparison reflects an increasing population trend of the said bird in the area studied. It has been observed that the prevailing ecological conditions of the lake, crane friendly behaviour of the local residents and awareness efforts of the authors have positive correlation in the sustainable conservation and increasing population trends of this vulnerable bird. Keywords: Alwara Lake; Conservation; Population Census; Sarus Crane; Increasing Trend. Introduction Author’s Affiliation: 1Head, Department of Zoology, Govt. P.G.

  • Recommended Band Size List Page 1
    Jun 00 Australian Bird and Bat Banding Scheme - Recommended Band Size List Page 1 Australian Bird and Bat Banding Scheme Recommended Band Size List - Birds of Australia and its Territories Number 24 - May 2000 This list contains all extant bird species which have been recorded for Australia and its Territories, including Antarctica, Norfolk Island, Christmas Island and Cocos and Keeling Islands, with their respective RAOU numbers and band sizes as recommended by the Australian Bird and Bat Banding Scheme. The list is in two parts: Part 1 is in taxonomic order, based on information in "The Taxonomy and Species of Birds of Australia and its Territories" (1994) by Leslie Christidis and Walter E. Boles, RAOU Monograph 2, RAOU, Melbourne, for non-passerines; and “The Directory of Australian Birds: Passerines” (1999) by R. Schodde and I.J. Mason, CSIRO Publishing, Collingwood, for passerines. Part 2 is in alphabetic order of common names. The lists include sub-species where these are listed on the Census of Australian Vertebrate Species (CAVS version 8.1, 1994). CHOOSING THE CORRECT BAND Selecting the appropriate band to use combines several factors, including the species to be banded, variability within the species, growth characteristics of the species, and band design. The following list recommends band sizes and metals based on reports from banders, compiled over the life of the ABBBS. For most species, the recommended sizes have been used on substantial numbers of birds. For some species, relatively few individuals have been banded and the size is listed with a question mark. In still other species, too few birds have been banded to justify a size recommendation and none is made.

  • Grey Crowned Cranes Balearica Regulorum in Urban Areas of Uganda
    Grey Crowned Cranes Balearica regulorum in urban areas of Uganda The greatest threat to birds in tropical Africa is habitat change; often a result of unsus- tainable agricultural practices (BirdLife International 2013a) and this certainly applies to Grey Crowned Cranes Balearica regulorum, whose primary breeding habitat — sea- sonal swamps — is increasingly being converted into cultivation and other land uses. Cranes are also caught, often as small young, for the wild bird trade, and to be kept as pets by individuals as well as hotels and other institutions (Muheebwa-Muhoozi, 2001). Less often, some are caught for traditional uses. Cranes typically roost on tall trees, and feed in a wide variety of open habitats, where human disturbance is also increasing. In recent years, cranes have found places to feed, roost and even breed in urban parts of Uganda, where they seem to have adapted to human disturbance. Grey Crowned Cranes in Uganda are found most commonly in the steep valleys of the south-west and the very shallow valleys of the south-east (Gumonye-Mafabi 1989, Muheebwa-Muhoozi 2001, Olupot et al. 2009). But over the past 30–40 years, their population in Africa has declined by about 70% (Beilfuss et al. 2007), and prob- ably by a similar amount in Uganda (SN unpublished data), and the species is now considered to be Endangered (BirdLife International 2013b). This study was conducted at two feeding and roosting sites: 1) Kiteezi, which is the Kampala landfill site located at about 12 km north of the city, from September 2010 to December 2014 and 2) the main campus of Islamic University in Uganda lo- cated at Nkoma approximately 3 km from Mbale Town, 26 May 2013 to 28 July 2014.

Data on aspects such as 12 the breeding season, courtship, mating, egg laying and incubation period, nest site 13 fidelity, egg morphometry, breeding productivity and recruitment rate were collected 14 between 2003 and 2012. Black-necked crane started arriving from last week of March 15 to first half of April and showed fidelity at ten nesting sites. Courtship and mating 16 peaked early morning (0700 hours), around noon (1100 hours) and in late evening 17 (0600 hours) while the nest building at evening (1600 hours).

  • Sandhill Crane Antigone Canadensis
    sandhill crane Antigone canadensis Kingdom: Animalia Division/Phylum: Chordata Class: Aves Order: Gruiformes Family: Gruidae ILLINOIS STATUS common, native FEATURES The sandhill crane averages about 40 to 48 inches in length (tail tip to bill tip in preserved specimen). This bird has a wingspan of six to seven feet. A red patch can be seen on the top of the bird’s head extending to the back edge of the bill. The feathers are gray in adults and brown in immature cranes. The crane has long legs and a long neck. The feathers over the rump stick out in a “bustle.” BEHAVIORS The sandhill crane is common in northern Illinois. It lives in prairies, fields (especially in corn fields), the edges of swampy areas, lakes and marshes. Spring migration begins in late February. The bird flies on good weather days and often does not land in Illinois. The sandhill crane has its nesting area in northern Illinois. The nest is a large pile of vegetation on the ground in a marshy area. Two, brown eggs with dark markings are deposited by the female. The male and female alternate incubation duties for the 31- to 32-day incubation period. Fall migration begins in mid- September. The sandhill crane winters in the southern United States from Florida to Texas. Cranes fly with the neck and legs extended. When migrating, they fly in flocks that are linear or in a "v" shape. The sandhill crane eats plant and animal materials. Its call is "garooo-a-a-a." HABITATS Aquatic Habitats lakes, ponds and reservoirs; marshes; peatlands; swamps; wet prairies and fens Woodland Habitats none Prairie and Edge Habitats black soil prairie; dolomite prairie; edge; gravel prairie; hill prairie; sand prairie; shrub prairie © Illinois Department of Natural Resources.
