Abstract

Hiraj is a small village situated about ten kilometers away towards the west of the city. It is covered with sparse scrubland, grasslands and sparse wetlands. Also, popular among the birders' community as a hotspot in winters. Agriculture practices are intensive near the human settlement in the vicinity. We frequently visit the grasslands at Hiraj (17.692324, 75.834291) near Solapur city for bird watching and on 26 January, 2022 we sighted a Black Stork Ciconia nigra opportunistically.
