#KusheshwarAsthanBirdSanctuary at #Bihar
On 27th October, we visited the Kusheshwar Asthan
Bird Sanctuary, situated 45 km from Darbhanga. The sanctuary was notified in
1994 and it covers 29 square km area. We were very happy after reading news
reports about beginning of arrival of waders in Kusheshwar Asthan. When we were
about to proceed, I found some Indian starlings are welcoming in the campus of
Circuit house of Darbhanga. I captured some snaps and start our journey to
Sanctuary with great hope as media reported. When we reached and started touring
inside the wetland the media report was not realized by us. However, we sighted
some territorial birds; such as Pied Kingfisher, Great Egret, Indian pond heron
and Little cormorant. We noticed folks of migratory birds (50-60 Grey headed
lapwings) while returning from the Sanctuary.
