The avifaunal diversity of Jodhpur Jhal wetland in Mathura district, Uttar Pradesh was studied for one year (January 2022 to December 2022). To spot the birds, the Line transects and point count methods were applied and standard books and locals were taken into account for identification. This wetland is inhabited by various resident and migratory birds including Passerines and wetland dependent birds. A total of 182 avian species were recorded belonging to 57 families. The highest numbers of birds were from the family Anatidae. Maximum diversity was recorded during winters. Out of 182 species, 170 are considered as least concerned, 3 species are vulnerable, 8 species are Near Threatened and 1 is endangered according to the IUCN Red List, 2022. The presence of such species signifies the ecological importance of Jodhpur Jhal Wetland and this baseline study is crucial for the protection and preservation of this important habitat and for further studies of its sustainable management.
