Important Vagrant Record of Indian Broad-Tailed Grassbird Schoenicola Platyurus from Kayla Wetland/Cultivation Field, Nal Sarovar Birds Sanctuary, Gujarat, India

Abstract: This study documents an important vagrant record of the Indian Broad-tailed Grassbird (Schoenicola platyurus) from Kayla wetland and nearby cultivation fields close to Nal Sarovar Birds Sanctuary, Gujarat. The bird was observed on 27 September 2016 and identified through careful field observation of its size, plumage, and other distinguishing features, supported by standard ornithological references. The species, endemic to India and listed as Near Threatened, is mainly known from the Western Ghats and parts of Maharashtra. This sighting significantly extends its known range northwestward and suggests the need for further monitoring in Gujarat.
