Hello, I am HeiaSafarie

[edit]

I have 48 edits as of Sat Sep 23, 2023 (including edits on my User Page). I normally make and edit articles related to Indian Geography and Indian History. Here are some topics I wish to write about:

  1. Kaggaladu, Tumakuru
  2. The Great War in Africa ( Farwell, Byron )
  3. Cartography of Angola

The following section is dedicated to some of the prototype articles I plan to officially publish. If any mods are here, please give me any feedback on the articles I have started working on here! Please note that these articles may be still in progress.

Kaggaladu Bird Sanctuary

[edit]

Kaggaladu Bird sanctuary is a Conservatory in Kaggaladu, Karnataka near the town of Sira. The sanctuary is a must see for bird watchers in the District Tumkur, with the pond the Sanctuary is built around drying out in August. Birds that still lurch in the bushes surrounding the pond are termed as ‘Lazy Birds’. [1] Storks are important to Kaggaladu’s villagers, with the locals planting Tamarind trees for Storks to nest. In 1999 the small village came spot on the map, with the WANC starting to monitor the nesting sites and wetlands of the area.

Flora & Fauna

[edit]

The major species of Flora in the Kaggaladu city in the region of Sira TalukTamarind Tamarindus indica & the Indian Banyan Ficus benghalensis.


As of now, WANC is filing a detailed report on Fauna in the region, but as of now several species of Blackbuck live here. Around the Kaggaladu Pond are a abundance of wildlife.[2]

Cartography of Angola

[edit]

Early on in the history of Angola, Portuguese travellers arrived at the kingdom of Kongo. Immense trade began between the two powers, with explorations surveying the surrounding area.
