Abstract
Bhuj experiences low rainfall, but is blessed with a bowl-shaped topography with a large city lake (the Hamirsar) at the lowest point, in the center of the city, next to the walled city. A collective term for all the birds in a particular region. Avifauna may be used to refer to birds in a geographic region (the Southwest), a habitat region (boreal forest), a political boundary region (Australia) or even a time period (migration). Ornithologists and conservationists study a region's avifauna for both short and long term changes that may indicate population shifts, evolutionary adaptations or the rise or fall of threatened species. About 82 avian genera in 33 families have been recorded with the help of honorable wildlife warden, Bhuj, Gujarat State.
KEY WORDS: Kachchh, Hamirsar, Avifauna, Birds.
