Abstract
As a part of Calcutta University curriculum, a local excursion was made by us on September 13, 2014 at Brace Bridge Nature Park (BBNP), a 60 ha sewage fed fi shery system in Kolkata, under the guidance of our teachers and, accompanied and supervised by experts on the subject. The excursion was an exciting exercise to have the glimpse of nature and wildlife at the park. The jheels of this fi shery system have long been used city sewage water for puri fi cation and pisciculture. The entire area is brought under beautification and greenery with gardens, tall trees and some cages and enclosures of deer, pet animals and birds for visitors.
