Had they been breeding in monsoon, their nest would have run the risk of getting flooded. Also when the chicks arrive it is monsoon and there is ample supply of insects and vegetation for feeding young ones. Doves, kingfishers, mynas, woodpeckers, orioles, etc., breed in summer. Onset of monsoon brings a sea change in the park. The drying lakes are recharged.
Parched habitat turns green once again.
Waterlily blooms all over the lake and other hydrophytes grow spontaneously. A canal form Ajan dam brings more water to the park, along with which come millions of fish fry and other microorganism. Aestivating turtles come to life once again. Frogs start croaking. Sarus cranes dance.
