Big Bird Day is an annual bird spotting event of the Delhi Bird Foundation, held every year since 2004. This year the Big Bird Day was celebrated on February 5,
- The total number of different species of bird spotted across Delhi NCR was 253, higher than last year’s count. A beautiful Painted Sandgrouse was also spotted at Sultanpur National Park Birds are very important for our ecosystem. They help control insect population, thus helping to balance the food chain. Humming birds dive deep within the flower to consume nectar. While doing so, pollen sticks to their body. They spread the pollen to other flowers, allowing plants to reproduce. Birds serve as a natural pest control and also help in dispersing seeds.
Owing to climate change, habitat loss due to urbanization, use of pesticides, pollution, entanglement and entrapment, bird species have declined rapidly. But with a change in the attitude of people towards nature and its creations, focus is being given on the dwindling population of various species.
Over the years, human beings had lost their connection with nature. Technology and electronic gadgets had consumed our time and taken our focus. But as we move on, we have realised the importance of taking care of nature. Devastation and natural calamities are God’s way of telling us to go slow and not exploit the planet.
