ITANAGAR: A total of 89 different bird species were documented during a two-day bird survey conducted earlier this year by the Arunachal Pradesh Birding Club (APBC) at a lake in Namsai district of the northeastern state.

The survey was carried out at the Nongsaya Lake, situated in Jona, around 9 km from Namsai town, in collaboration with the Public Works Department, conservationist Koj Mama informed.

"The lake and its surrounding forested environment offer rich biodiversity, with immense potential for bird and butterfly conservation. In addition to acting as a natural habitat, the area could serve as an ideal location for environmental education and recreational activities," Mama said.
