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 Red-crested Pochard (Netta rufina) is a strikingly beautiful diving duck commonly found in freshwater lakes and marshes across Europe, Central Asia, and parts of North Africa. Males are especially eye-catching, with their vibrant reddish-orange crests, bright red bills, and black-and-white plumage. Females, in contrast, are more subdued, sporting brownish-gray feathers and a pale face. These birds are social by nature and often form large flocks during migration or in winter. They feed on aquatic plants, seeds, and small invertebrates, diving underwater or dabbling at the surface. The Red-crested Pochard prefers habitats with abundant vegetation and is a partial migrant, with some populations traveling long distances to avoid harsh winters.
