Vadodara: The number of birds at Wadhwana Lake went up in the second round of counting that was conducted by the forest department on Tuesday. Officials said that approximately 70,000 birds were spotted at Wadhwana Lake and the adjacent Simaliya Lake during the two sessions of counting done on the occasion of World Wetland Day.
“The number of birds went up as compared to the first counting that we conducted on January 1. On Tuesday, about 70,000 birds were counted in and around the lake. The count of species though went down as many migratory birds seem to have left the wetland and were headed home,” said Baldevsinh Waghela, divisional forest officer (DFO) (wildlife), Vadodara.
