Birds of Bangladesh

Our Bangladesh is a charming and beautiful daughter of nature.Nature has decorated her with fruits,flower,trees,woods,hills and rivers. Her climate is suitable for living of birds.So we have a great number of birds in our country.

We find many kinds of birds in Bangladesh around us.They are different in size,shape,colour and nature.Some birds are small in size;some are big.Some birds live in woods and some live in human habitation.In Bangladesh birds are divided into many classes such as teasing birds,,singing birds,tailor birds,migratory birds,prey birds, domestic birds,talking birds and game birds.

We have many singing birds in our country.These are the cuckoo,the shyama,the magpie robin tht koel,the papiya,the nightngale,the tuntuni,etc.All of them are very beautifulto look at.They are popular.

The cuckoo is the most popular.It is called the harbinger of spring.The magpie robin is our national bird. It is found here,there and everywhere.The chandana,the bou katha kao are loved by all.

We have a small number of prey birds.The vulture and the hawk are known as prey birds.They live on fish,chicken and dead bodies of animals.They have keen eyes and sharp nails.They are big in size.

There are some teasing birds around us.These are the crow.the kite,etc.They tease us every now and then in different ways.They are ugly to look at.They like dirty and rotten things to eat.

The harsh voice of the crow is very teasing.If the crow gets any opportunity it steals away foods and other things from our kitchens.These are hated by all.

In our country we have many game birds.The dove,the pigeon,the snipe,the heron,the pankauri,the teal etc.are known as game birds.They are famous for their palatable flesh.
