Bangladesh, a small and beautiful country, is land of small and beautiful birds. Singing and twittering and whistling of dreamlike small birds, before dawn, in the morning and evening, make us happy. You will not find world-famous birds like eagles, swans, falcons, peacocks, and cranes in Bangladesh, but you will fine countless small birds among the leaves of trees,in bushes,in ponds and marshy lands. They are our native birds.Whenever I think of birds I think of a Doel(Magpie Robin),aCharui(Sparrow),a Tuntuni(Warbler)a Shalik(Myna),a Kak(Crow,Raven),a Ghughu(Dove),a Bak(Heron,Egret,Pond Heron)a Mayna(Myna)a Kabutar(Pigeon),a Machranga(Kingfisher),a Kaththokra(Woodpecker)a Bulbuli(Bulbul),a Babui.Birds are wonderful creations of Allah. Bangladesh is a land of birds. There are different types of birds. They live in different trees and plants in our country.
The crow is the most common of all the birds. it is an early riser. When it caws at dawn, we know that the night is over. It is a black and ugly bird its voice is harsh. It is very cunning. It steals our food. At times it snatches food from children whenever it gets chance. It eats all kinds of rotten and dirty things. It is called the sweeper of the nature.
The cuckoo, the doel, the bau-katha-kao etc. are some of the signing birds. The cuckoo is liked by all for its sweet voice. It comes in the spring.
The parrot, the mayna, the shalik, the shyma and the chandana are talking birds. They can imitate the voice of man. So they are often kept as pets.
There are some birds which build their nests with great skill. The swallow, the tuntuni and the babul are the tailor birds.
The kite and the hawk are birds of prey. The crane and the kingfisher are found near watery places. The vulture is a big and ugly bird. It eats dead bodies of animals.
The dove, the pigeon, the heron, the goose, the chakha etc. are some of the common birds of Bangladesh. Their meat is tasteful and delicious. These birds are knows as game birds. Many game birds come from foreign land during Autumn and Winter. The rest of them live in the wild or in old building. Owls generally live in barns and other buildings.
The birds is a beautiful creation of Allah. Some of them provide good for us. We should be kind to them.We should take care of them and save them from destruction.
