Greetings to all,
Pokhara bird society is an organization dedicated to conservation since its inception and has been carrying out its activities accordingly. Considering Earth as a common habitat for biodiversity, we carry out our activities on the status, distribution, ecology and habitat conservation of birds. As we are losing important habitats like forests, wetland and grasslands, the bird species are vulnerable and some are already near extinction. In addition, the human-induced problems like unplanned urbanization, pollution, illegal hunting and poaching are adding more threats to their survival. So, we feel the conservation of birds and biodiversity as an urgency of the hour and look forward to our collective and unified efforts toward achieving this goal. We would like to present our gratitude to all the advisors, collaborators, members and well-wishers, and hope for continued cooperation in the future, as we work toward our shared goal of conserving our feathered friends.
The Brown Parrotbill (Cholornis unicolor) is a unique bird species found in the temperate and subtropical forests of the Himalayas, including eastern Nepal. This small, stocky bird has a strong, parrot-like bill, which gives it its name, and is typically seen in dense bamboo thickets. Though not brightly colored, its brownish plumage helps it blend perfectly into its forest habitat. Interestingly, Brown Parrotbills are highly social and often move in noisy flocks, sometimes joining mixed-species bird parties. They are insectivorous but also feed on seeds and small fruits. Despite their elusive nature, they are not considered globally threatened, making Nepal an important region for observing this uncommon Himalayan bird.
