Sikkim is a state which is full of various ethnic origins. All the tribe groups have bird nomenclature in their dictionary. Ethno-ornithology is a subject practice that states how the traditional knowledge about birds had been inherited. For example, the Lepchas have around 400 plus bird names in their spoken language and dictionary.  

Bird names on more spoken languages from Sikkim may be uploaded, depending on the availability of resources. We are currently working on this page. Please write to us at birdsofsikkim@gmail.com / info@sikkimbirds.com if you have any queries/requests.
