Description
The Avifaunal diversity study of Chintamoni Kar Bird Sanctuary (CKBS), Ramchandrapur, Narendrapur, Kolkata, West Bengal, India, 2019 (January-June) is published by Nature Mates Nature Club. The site is situated in Ramchandrapur, Narendrapur, which is situated to the south of Kolkata in the West Bengal region of India. Since 1982, this privately-owned orchard has gained popularity among avian enthusiasts, prompting governmental consideration for its acquisition and designation as an avian sanctuary. The late Mr. Kushal Mookherjee, in collaboration with other members of Prakriti Samsad such as Mr. Kalyan Das, demonstrated unwavering dedication in preserving the aforementioned location. They maintained consistent communication with the Forest Department in their efforts. Prior to that time, the area was initially a vast expanse of land dedicated to the cultivation of mangoes, characterized by the presence of towering mango trees. In October 2005, the government of West Bengal undertook the initiative to acquire ownership of a property previously held by private individuals, with the intention of making it accessible to the general public. The Narendrapur Wildlife Sanctuary was officially designated with its current name on September 8th, 2004. Subsequently, on October 21st, 2005, it was renamed as the Chintamoni Kar Bird Sanctuary, in recognition of the renowned sculptor Chintamoni Kar's efforts to secure the status of 'Kayaler Bagan' or sanctuary for this area. The Bird Sanctuary comprises an orchard adorned with indigenous fruit trees that have surpassed a century in age. The orchard, which was placed under the jurisdiction of Sunderban Biosphere Reserve and managed by the West Bengal Forest Department, had undergone a reduction in size from its original 27 acres to 17 acres at the time of its acquisition. Along with fruit trees, there are other types of wild trees, as well as orchids, ferns, climbers, and epiphytes; these are all supported by both transient and permanent small water bodies. This sanctuary serves as a refuge for a diverse range of fauna, such as avian species, lepidopterans, and reptiles, as well as a limited number of mammalian taxa, including civets, jungle cats, mongooses, and jackals, amidst the bustling urban environment. The present dataset comprises a comprehensive record of avian species identified during an extensive survey of avifaunal diversity conducted at the Chintamani Kar Bird Sanctuary from January to June 2019. Two surveys were conducted on a monthly basis. All identified species have been classified up to the level of genus or species. The study documented the presence of 43 avian species, which were classified into 28 distinct families and 12 different orders.
