Birds Of Bangladesh - Composition


 Bangladesh is a sweet home of birds. Birds of different kinds and species abound in this land. They live in woods, in hills, in marshy places and even in our homesteads. They are of various colours, sizes and habits. Some birds live on fruits and grains, some on worms and insects, some on fish and flesh, while some others feed on dirty and rotten things.

There are some singing birds in our country. Among the singing birds, the cuckoo, the doel, the koel, the bou kotha kau and the nightingale are remarkable. The doel is our national bird.

There are different kinds of tailor birds in Bangladesh. Tailor birds are those that weave their nests themselves. The tuntuni, the babui and the swallow are some of them.

The game birds include the heron, the partridge, the teal, the dove, the pigeon, the snipe and the pankauri.

The hawk, the vulture, the crow and the kite belong to the kind of plundering birds. Among them the crow has a thievish nature. It enters into our houses and steals many odd things. However, some of these birds feed on all kinds of rotten and dirty things and thus, clean, up the environment.

There are other kinds of birds which also are very well known in Bangladesh. The mayna, the chandana, the parrot and the cockatoa are remarkable as talking birds. If they are properly trained, they can imitate human voice and talk like men. Besides them, there are domestic birds like pigeon, the sparrow, the swan and the cock. The woodpecker and the kingfisher fall among the kind of wild birds. The owl is a very fierce looking bird. But it is quite innocent and harmless. It moves only in the night and never comes out in the light of day.

Many of the birds that live in Bangladesh are very useful creatures. They entertain the people with sweet songs and provide them with delicious and protein rich food. Some of them keep the environment neat and clean while the others add to the people's joy and delight.
