Avian biodiversity refers to the variety of bird species present in a particular environment or geographical area. Birds constitute a diverse group of animals with a wide range of adaptations, behaviors, and ecological roles. Understanding and preserving avian biodiversity is crucial, not only for the birds themselves but also for the overall health and functioning of ecosystems on a global scale. Conservation efforts focused on maintaining and restoring bird habitats contribute to the broader goal of sustaining biodiversity and promoting ecosystem resilience. The house sparrow (Passer domesticus) is a familiar and widespread bird species closely associated with human habitations for centuries. Ongoing efforts to comprehend and address the factors contributing to the decline of house sparrows in India continue, with a specific focus on promoting conservation measures to ensure their continued presence in the country. With avian biodiversity and sparrow conservation in mind, this book aims to provide a basic understanding of avian biodiversity, using the house sparrow in the foothills of Garhwal Himalayas as an example.
