Abstract Birds are regarded as the most significant indicators of the overall health of an ecosystem. Numerous bird species rely on wetlands for breeding, nesting, roosting, and foraging. The present study was conducted during the period from January 2025 to June 2025 at the Kadegaon wetland, Sangli District. Regular visits were conducted during the period to study breeding behaviour and nest site selection by pairs. The visit was done from 8:00 am to noon and from 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm. The breeding behaviour of the wetland birds was observed using a Nikon 8 x 42 mm Binocular. Photographic observations were performed using a Canon 65x optical zoom camera with a 20.3-megapixel lens. For the detailed examination, nest and egg characteristics were considered, as the size of the nest, shape of the nest, material used for nesting, colour, shape, and length of the eggs.
