Depending on specific habitat functioning, their population pattern helps to determine the ecological health of an area. Bird sur- veys were accomplished on a fortnightly basis from October 2019 to September 2020 using Scan sampling, Point count and Line transect methods for evaluation of species abundance and richness in and around Ottu Reservoir, district Sirsa, Haryana (India). A total of 114 species comprising 91 genera, 47 families and 18 orders were recorded, among which 76 species were resident, 30 winter migrants and 8 summer migrants. Out of reported 114 species of birds, one species was vulnerable, 6 Near- threatened as listed by IUCN. Three bird species were listed under Schedule-I and the remaining species under Schedule-IV of IWPA (1972); six species under appendices of CITES (2012).

A multi-index system has been used to assess the ecological health which includes Carlson’s Trophic State Index (CTSI), Simpson’s Diversity Index (SDI) and Water Quality Index (WQI). The results indicated that the lake health is average but is approaching to bad condition as indicated by EHI of 2.93. Suitable conservative measures should be adopted to arrest its further degradation. Certain conservative measures are also suggested.

Water samples were 1988; Ezeji et al., 2005; Antai and Mgbomo) collected from each sampling station and analyzed for Bioremediation is a pollution treatment expertise that uses estimation of pH, Electrical Conductivity (EC), Chemical biological systems to catalyze the destruction such as oxygen demand (COD), Biological oxygen demand (BOD), pesticides (Naphade et. al,2013) or transformation of Dissolved Oxygen (DO), Phosphate (PO 3-), Nitrate (NO – 4 3 various chemicals, to less harmful forms thus organic ).

On the basis of lake morphology, lake was divided in to three sampling stations. Water samples were collected fortnightly from each sampling station and analyzed for estimation of pH, total dissolved solids, turbidity, conductivity, total hardness, calcium, magnesium, chlorides, free carbon dioxide, dissolved oxygen, BOD, ortho-phosphate, ammonia, sulphate and alkalinity. Air temperature, water temperature, and weather conditions were also recorded. The observed values of various physico-chemical parameters of water samples were compared and analyzed. Key words : Lake Tilyar, water, physico-chemical characteristics, monthly variations. ____________________________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION Study of the physico-chemical characteristics of an aquatic ecosystem is essential for understanding of its biological productivity and diversity. Lakes and rivers play a significant role in maintenance of the natural heritage. They have been widely utilized by human beings over the centuries, to the extent that very few, if any are now in a natural condition 1. In India, rivers, lakes and ponds are used for domestic purposes and in agriculture. Water is one of the most important and precious natural resource available to mankind.
