Mysore/Mysuru: While there is a rise in pigeon population in the city, the numbers of crows and mynas have dwindled, flagging concern among bird lovers in the city.
The flock of pigeons around Mysore Palace and various other parts of the city are regularly fed by nature lovers with grains and food roasted in oil. This has come under flak, especially for feeding pigeons near Mysore Palace, with the bird droppings posing a threat to the beauty of the royal abode and also taking a toll on public health.
