Birds In Beed District
Hello to everyone,i am glad to share my knowledge regarding birds from marathwada region specially beed region. as i found no article on the internet regarding birds from beed region so i decide to do it by myself. first of all if u found any content wrong then ur definitely welcome for any improvements. BirdLife In Beed Region: i am going to divide this article in two phases i.e.restrict this to two places only 1)Manjara Dam(Dhanegao Dam). 2)Dharur mountain range.

remenber i dont know exactly about the bird life there but whatever information i got from internet i thought with my little bit experience of watching birds and some useful links i could generate a wondeful and useful article for every bird lover who find difficult to get info abt bird life in beed district.

1)For manjara Dam u can refer this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manjara_Dam and about bird life read the following first of all i will list out the possible birds from our region 1)House Sparrow 2)Common Crow 3)Common myna 4)cuckoo 5)Brahminey Starling 6)White brested kingfisher 7)pied kingfisher 8)Common Babbler 9)red vented bulbul 10)red whiskered bulbul 11)black drongo 12)Oriental honey buzzard 13)crested serphant eagle 14)black shouldered kite 15)shikra 16)common hoopoe 17)Woodpecker 18)laughing dove u can see these in common even in ur own city but the one i have not seen but heard a lot about it is one endangered species which has many sightings from our region also and that is "Indian Grey Hornbill". this is a wonderful bird if u have any sightings of this bird in our region pls let me know or post a reply here indian grey hornbill looks like follow this http://www.google.co.in/search?num=10&hl=en&site=imghp&tbm=isch&source=hp&biw=1366&bih=667&q=indian+grey+hornbill&oq=indian+grey+&gs_l=img.3.0.0l2j0i24l2j0i10i24j0i24l5.1170.4498.0.5718.12.12.0.0.0.0.230.1884.2j9j1.12.0...0.0...1ac.1.faDY02IG_CI

now there are other birds which are frequently sighted in this region i think being dam aquatic birds are more in number i will be very greatful if one of u let me know about bird sightings from dharur region
