Use of habitats by several breeding birds, such as Red-breasted Parakeet Psittacula alexandri indicated the importance of habitats for the survival of bird community in the area. Monitoring of population, especially those of breeding species, is necessary to assess the suitability of the area as wildlife refuge and to make necessary management recommendation
