ABSTRACT

Birds are essential in any ecosystem, such as prey, predators, pollinators, scavengers, seed dispersals, and ecosystem engineers. The diversity of birds plays a significant role in determining the health of an ecosystem. This study prepares the checklist of birds at Barkatullah University, Bhopal. The species of the birds were recorded using point count and line transect methods. The study was performed on eight sites. The present study notices a positive relationship between healthy ecosystems and the birds recorded. The university campus has a huge variety of trees, which leads to a richness of bird species on the premises.
