  • Abstract:
  • Ratnagiri, a district within the Konkan region of the Western Ghats, harbours rich avian biodiversity spanning wetlands, forests, grasslands, and urban landscapes. This study documents 23 bird species classified into eight orders and twelve families, analysing their habitat preferences, ecological roles, and conservation statuses. While most species are categorized as Least Concern, the Great Pied Hornbill (Buceros bicornis) and Malabar Pied Hornbill (Anthracoceros coronatus) face conservation challenges. The results emphasize the need for habitat-specific conservation strategies to preserve the ecological services provided by these birds, including seed dispersal, pollination, and pest control.
