Srirangapatna: The Forest Department, in association with Mysore Bird Watchers’ Group, for the first time conducted a Bird Census at Ranganathittu Bird Sanctuary in Srirangapatna this morning. About 75 volunteers and avid bird watchers took part in this census.
The census was originally scheduled on Mar. 4, but was postponed to Mar. 11 following the death of S. Manikandan, Director of Nagarahole National Park, who was trampled by an elephant on Mar. 3.
