Kamboj3 1,2,3Gujarat Ecological Education and Research (GEER) Foundation, Gandhinagar, Gujarat, India *Corresponding Author: [email protected], Tel:+91-8980588545 Available online at: www.isroset.org Received: 17/Sept/2018, Accepted: 29/Sept/2018, Online: 31/Oct/2018 Abstract- Ahmedabad‟s Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International (SVPI) airport is known to have a high potential of bird-aircraft collision hazards. For determining the causes and magnitude of the problem and to find out likely solutions, birds, other small animals (mammals and reptiles) and insects were monitored by Gujarat Ecological Education and Research (GEER) Foundation, Gandhinagar during pre-monsoon and monsoon seasons between 2015 and 2017. For monitoring birds, two linear transects were laid, one each along each side of the runway. Besides transect-based bird surveys, bird species were also randomly recorded in other parts of the airport premises and even outside it (within 1 km belt parallel to the airport boundary). A total of 59 species of birds were encountered within the airport premises that belonged to 30 different families. Of these, 48 species were recorded along the transects. The majority (i.e., 83%) of the total 59 species were either obligate or facultative insectivorous birds. As the majority of birds were found to be obligatorily or facultatively insectivorous, insect monitoring was also carried out.

  • (Orthotomus Sutorius) Parasitism by Plaintive Cuckoo
    Nahid et al. Avian Res (2016) 7:14 DOI 10.1186/s40657-016-0049-y Avian Research SHORT REPORT Open Access First record of Common Tailorbird (Orthotomus sutorius) parasitism by Plaintive Cuckoo (Cacomantis merulinus) in Bangladesh Mominul Islam Nahid1,2, Frode Fossøy1, Sajeda Begum2, Eivin Røskaft1 and Bård G. Stokke1* Abstract The Plaintive Cuckoo (Cacomantis merulinus) is a widespread brood parasite in Asia, but no data on host species utili- zation in Bangladesh exist. By searching for nests of all possible host species of the Plaintive Cuckoo at Jahangirnagar university campus, north of Dhaka, we were able to determine which hosts were used in this area. We found that the Common Tailorbird (Orthotomus sutorius) was the only potential host used by Plaintive Cuckoos, and parasitism rate was rather high (31.3 %, n 16). However, both host and cuckoo breeding success was poor (0 %, n 16) due to fre- quent nest predation. Details= on host and cuckoo egg appearance are provided. Our findings indicate= that Common Tailorbirds are common hosts of the Plaintive Cuckoo in Central Bangladesh.

SEALY Departmentof Zoology Universityof Manitoba Winnipeg,Manitoba R3T 2N2 Canada Abstract.--We summarized 40 reports of nine speciesof brood parasitesfeeding young of their own species.These observationssuggest that the propensityto provisionyoung hasnot been lost entirely in brood parasitesdespite the belief that brood parasiticadults abandon their offspringat the time of laying.The hypothesisthat speciesthat participatein courtship feeding are more likely to provisionyoung was not supported:provisioning of young has been observedin two speciesof brood parasitesthat do not courtshipfeed. The function of this provisioningis unknown, but we suggestit may be: (1) a non-adaptivevestigial behavior or (2) an adaptation to ensure adequatecare of parasiticyoung. The former is more likely the case.Further studiesare required to determinewhether parasiticadults commonly feed their genetic offspring.

  • SE China and Tibet (Qinghai) Custom Tour: 31 May – 16 June 2013
    SE China and Tibet (Qinghai) Custom Tour: 31 May – 16 June 2013 Hard to think of a better reason to visit SE China than the immaculate cream-and-golden polka- dot spotted Cabot’s Tragopan, a gorgeous serious non-disappointment of a bird. www.tropicalbirding.com The Bar-headed Goose is a spectacular waterfowl that epitomizes the Tibetan plateau. It migrates at up to 27,000 ft over the giant Asian mountains to winter on the plains of the Indian sub-continent. Tour Leader: Keith Barnes All photos taken on this tour Introduction: SE and Central China are spectacular. Both visually stunning and spiritually rich, and it is home to many scarce, seldom-seen and spectacular looking birds. With our new base in Taiwan, little custom tour junkets like this one to some of the more seldom reached and remote parts of this vast land are becoming more popular, and this trip was planned with the following main objectives in mind: (1) see the monotypic family Pink-tailed Bunting, (2) enjoy the riches of SE China in mid-summer and see as many of the endemics of that region including its slew of incredible pheasants and the summering specialties. We achieved both of these aims, including incredible views of all the endemic phasianidae that we attempted, and we also enjoyed the stunning scenery and culture that is on offer in Qinghai’s Tibet. Other major highlights on the Tibetan plateau included stellar views of breeding Pink-tailed Bunting (of the monotypic Chinese Tibetan-endemic family Urocynchramidae), great looks at Przevalski’s and Daurian Partridges, good views of the scarce Ala Shan Redstart, breeding Black-necked Crane, and a slew of wonderful waterbirds including many great looks at the iconic Bar-headed Goose and a hoarde of www.tropicalbirding.com snowfinches.

Sandi Bird sanctuary was developed and conserved in the year 1990 as natural biodiversity hub for aquatic vegetation as well as local residents and migratory birds. This Sanctuary has an area of 309 hectares. A study of faunal diversity in Sandi Bird Sanctuary was done during January 2013 to March 2014. Sandi Bird Sanctuary is well known as popular tourist destination because of the diverse assemblage of avifauna especially migratory water birds that congregate at the Sandi Bird Sanctuary in winter. The result includes 3 species of annelids belonging to 3 orders, 10 orders of insects with 61 species, 4 species of mollusks belonging to 3 orders, 11 species of fishes belonging to 5 families, 3 species of amphibians and 15 species of reptiles belonging to 13 families, 157 species of birds, and 12 species of mammals belonging to 09 families from Sandi Bird Sanctuary. The sanctuary is an envoy area of the Indo-gangetic eco-system. Wetland vegetation is also found in the sanctuary. Key words: Sandi Bird Sanctuary, Water birds, Biodiversity Hub, Hardoi, Invertebrates, Vertebrates.

  • Oral Flanges of Juvenile Birds
    ORAL FLANGES OF JUVENILE BIRDS GEORGE A. CLARK, JR. N the pre- and posthatching development of birds a number of structural I features are present for only a relatively short time. Such traits, par- ticularly prominent externally, may have significance in aging birds, as taxonomic characters, and as subjects for the study of adaptation. Examples of transitory structures which have recently been studied are natal plu- mages (cf. Clark, 1964) and egg teeth (Parkes and Clark, 1964). In this paper I review the occurrence, variations, and possible taxonomic significance of the transitory enlarged flanges of the bill bordering the mouth in juveniles of nidicolous birds. This inquiry was undertaken to determine whether or not the marked differences in form of flanges might be of taxonomic significance. A summary of this topic is believed of PO- tential value, particularly to call attention to the many major gaps in available information. A problem in studying transitory characteristics is obtaining a suitable series of developmental stages of living juveniles or preserved specimens. Many of the available records for flanges are based unfortunately on study of only one or a few stages, not necessarily those most informative. Inter- pretations based on samples covering only a limited range of ages should be made cautiously as illustrated below in the discussion of flanges in the Mockingbird (Mimus polyglottos) . SOURCES OF DATA Selected specimenswere examined in the collections of the United States National Museum (Washington, D. C.), the American Museum of Natural History (New York), and the University of Connecticut (Storrs). In addition, a number of live juveniles have been observed, and a few of these photographed.

  • Eastern Region of Sindhupalchok District, Central Nepal
    Study on the Bryofloral Diversity, Their Current Status and Conservation Issues in Central and South- eastern Region of Sindhupalchok District, Central Nepal Final Report Submitted to Rufford Small Grant Foundation, U.K. Nirmala Pradhan Kathmandu Nepal February, 2015 Summary First and Second Rufford Small Grant Programs (Ref. Id: 10.09.07 and ID: 10111-2) were implemented at the northern parts of Sindhupalchok district of central Nepal within the elevation range of 1400 – 4000 m which were highly successful to bring a long list of diverse species of bryophytes of the midland and highland areas. These two studies covered the elevation of 1400 to 4000 m where different habitat types were noted and 16 new records of this plant were also made that updated the country’s overall list. Tourism prospect in northern parts of this district was also assessed in these studies. The current study under the Booster Grant (ID:12663-B) was to give continuity to the previous works so was emphasized mostly to unexplored vast areas of the south, east and central parts of this district.
