The Avifaunal diversity study of Pakhibitan Ecopark is published by Nature Mates Nature Club under WBHIDCO Pakhibitan Project in Pakhibitan, Ecopark, Newtown, Kolkata, West Bengal, India.
This sampling event was performed in a selected point located in the marshlands covered with elephant grass (Typha sp.) of Pakhibitan surrounded by a forest patch.
This dataset includes all the birds recorded in a span of one year. All the species are identified up to the species or genus level. A total of 134 species of birds are recorded belonging to 53 families and 17 order.
This dataset also includes the life stage, activity and behaviour of the birds observed.

Marshland of Pakhibitan is mostly covered with elephant grass (Typha sp.) surrounded by a forested patch. In the summer (April-May), the maximum temperature of the area reaches around 41°C. During the winter (December-February), the temperature drops to 9°C while the average rainfall is 1836.5 mm per year. The soil type is alluvial because it is located in the Indo-Gangetic plain.
