Khabir Uddin Ahmed, chairman of the Ecopark, said that since 2004 different species of birds come to the park from October and stay here for around eight months.

After being announced a sanctuary, more and more birds are coming to the park, said the chairman.

The death of these migratory birds is a huge loss for nature, he added.
