Wetlands are areas where water is the primary factor controlling the environment and the associated plant and animal life. Birds as best indicators of wetland function or as measures of success in wetland management, restoration and creation. This study was conducted during December 2012 to April 2013.Totally 06 selected healthy and ecological important wetlands were surveyed in New Raipur in Raipur district of Chhattisgarh. Total 72 visits have been made in all study points, 12 in each during this period. Species diversity, Species richness and dominance of birds were calculated. Totally 1113 birds belonging to 93 species, 36 families and 14 orders were recorded, out of these 93 species 42 wetland and 51 terrestrial bird species. Maximum diversity of birds was recorded in Parsada Lake (H’=1.54) followed by Bandha Dam (H’=1.42) and Khanduwa Dam (H’=1.35). Bird abundance and vegetation cover were also recorded. Species richness was higher in Parsada Lake (48) followed by Bandha Dam (35) and Khanduwa (28). The highest number of birds were recorded in Parsada Lake (431), followed by Bandha Dam (212), Khuteri Lake I (140) and Khandwa Dam (134), and Only one Endangered species Egypsian Vulture Neophron percnopterus was recorded. In most of the wetlands Lantana camara (28.25%) followed by Ipomea carnea (15.28 %) was recorded. Wetlands in New Raipur has ecological importance, these are one of the productive and protective ecosystems. These occupy area of more than 05 hectares and support a rich food web from microscopic algae and submerged vascular plant to other organisms such as birds, reptiles and mammals. In these wetlands good population of birds are recorded and the site has good openness of food along with spatial space and non-disturbing habitat. These sites will be protected for the birds in future.
