AJMER: In the last three years, migratory birds like flamingoes have shifted their winter abode from the lakes of Ajmer. Even in the last days of December no Siberian birds are dwelling in the Anasagar Lake here. To provide facilities to these birds at Anasagar, the Ajmer Development Authority (ADA) has started the Natural Wooden Log Platforms Project.
There was a time when Anasagar was the main centre for flamingos which especially come to this place from China, Magnolia and also from the Rann of Kutch. "They not only stayed here for winters but made their nests on the trees of Baradari and lay eggs," said a bird watcher.
Besides flamingos there were black tail duck, cranes and Siberian ducks that added to the scenic beauty of the lake. But since last three years these birds are not seen here though there is good amount of water in Anasagar. "There are only water hens and local black ducks that are seen swimming in the lake," he added.
