Eurasian spoonbill
The lake is predominantly eutrophic due to the inflow of sewage. The nutrients support the profuse growth of water hyacinth and "Typha" in the shallow zone. The habitat is favoured by many species of water birds including large waterbirds such as the spot-billed pelican, Eurasian spoonbill, shoveller, pintail, garganey, little grebe, coot and Indian spot-billed duck. The shallow zone supports sandpipers and other waders as well as purple moorhens, purple herons and grey herons.
