Diversity of Birds at Different Stages of Paddy Growth between Two Paddy Fields in Kuching Division, Sarawak

Paddy field is considered as artificial wetland that sustains various bird species. The existing data on birds in paddy fields are insufficient. Hence, this study was conducted by using mist net and line transect at paddy fields in Kampung Stunggang Melayu Baru and Kampung Chupak on October 2016 to...
