摘要：An avian survey was carried out in Gharana wetland reserve from Jan 2012 to Jan 2014 to record the avifaunal diversity and their feeding guilds. Gharana wetland Reserve is one of the most important wetland reserve of Jammu region of Jammu and Kashmir state and serves as feeding, roosting and wintering grounds for large number of migratory water birds during their palaeartic to oriental migration. It lies between 3236 51.52 N latitude and 743858.15E longitudes. The study documents 57 species of birds. Feeding guilds were divided into 6 major categories viz carnivorous, grainivorous, frugivorous, omnivorous, insectivorous, herbivorous. The highest number of bird species was observed to utilize more than one feeding guild followed by carnivorous, herbivorous, insectivorous, grainivorous, omnivorous and frugivorous. The gharana wetland provides a rich feeding ground to both migratory as well as resident birds.
