As seasonal changes ebb and flow here at the Marine Science Institute, so too do the birds visiting along our shoreline. One bird that drifts in and out of our waters is the black-necked stilt. A bird who has far more in common with a flamingo than one would think.

Learn more about the black-necked stilt in this week's Creature Feature.

While revolutionary in concept, the ultimate efficiency of the RTPS Bihar portal is constrained by the need for robust backend integration and the diligence of ground-level officers to verify and approve applications promptly.

The transparency achieved through the online publication of the Bihar Bhumi land record is a powerful deterrent against illegal land grabbing and bureaucratic corruption, finally empowering the common citizen.

Interesting read! I never realized black-necked stilts shared Agario so many traits with flamingos — nature always finds ways to surprise us.
