Abstract
Waterbirds are generally understood to be birds that use wetlands for breeding, foraging, and roosting. In addition to being excellent markers of a wetland's health, wetland birds have a substantial impact on human culture, society, science, and food availability. These birds are clearly attractive to humans and have been mentioned in numerous ancient epics. The purpose of the current communication is to provide information on the water birds that can be found in the Jogmaya Sarovar or Ranjandih of Purulia district. Those birds who use this man made water body as a feeding and foraging ground are the subject of this communication. According to surveys undertaken on the Jogmaya Sarovar between January 2022 and March 2023, there are 33 species under 27 genera, which are divided into 15 families belonging to 10 orders. There are thought to be 12% local migrants, 18% migratory birds, and 70% resident birds. Moreover, 79% of the bird species of this lake reported from edge of the waterbody and rest (21%) found inside the waterbody.)
