Abstract :
Regular birding visit was carried out to
Hadinaru lake, in the taluk of Nanjangud, Mysuru
district. During bird watching, it was noticed the huge
congregation of Bar-Headed Goose Anser indicus. One of
the authors was also observed an Anser species similar to
Grey lag Goose as the birds had put its neck the other side,
after spending more time and keenly observing the bird a
white patch above the pinkish beak was strongly
prominent, though the yellow ring wasn’t properly visible
once photographed the bird was easily distinguished. The
present observation also stands to be the farthest inland
record of the bird in the Indian Subcontinent.
