The Forest Department on Saturday started a two-day bird census across 10 locations in Tiruppur district to enumerate and identity various species of birds, including the migratory birds that visit the water bodies.
According to Tiruppur Forest Range Officer S. Senthilkumar, the census would be carried out at nine tanks in Tiruppur Forest Range — Nanjarayan, Chinnandipalayam, Manikkapuram, Ramiyampalayam, Sangamamkulam, Sevur, Semmandampalayam, Thamaraikulam and Samalapuram tanks. The census would also be carried out at Uppar Dam in Kangeyam Forest Range.
Around 50 personnel from the Forest Department and members of environment NGOs have been engaged in the bird census, Mr. Senthilkumar said.

Selected from 9,400 submissions across 37 countries, the 100 photographs on display traverse intimate and political terrains. In MRC Nagar, photographer Swastik Pal captures life in the Sundarbans, where severe climate change has brought humans and wildlife into closer contact. Shane Hynan’s Beneath Beofhod reflects on Ireland’s boglands as sites of memory and restoration, while Mateo Trevisan’s More than the Sun examines the impact of coal-driven industrialisation in the Western Balkans.
