Abstract
807 Manuscript received 3 August 2001; Revised manuscript received 15 January 2002; Accepted for publication 20 February 2002 Abstract Avian fauna of Pohara-Malkhed Reserve of Amravati District (Maharashtra) was studied from 1997 to 2000. Totally 171 bird species from 56 different families were recorded of which 108 residents, 38 winter migrants, four passage migrants, three breeding migrants and 18 resident migrants were observed. The appearance of these birds were found to be positively correlated with the availability of food and roosting places. The reserve is at present undisturbed from human activities and rich in grass forest with ten wetlands. Disappearance of vultures was noted.
