Question

Accepted Answer

Let's identify each option:

A) **Golden Mahseer:** The Golden Mahseer (Tor putitora) is a large freshwater fish species found in riverine ecosystems, particularly in the Himalayan region. It is highly endangered and often referred to as the "Tiger of the waters." It is definitely not a bird.

B) **Indian Nightjar:** The Indian Nightjar (Caprimulgus asiaticus) is a nocturnal bird species found across South Asia. It is known for its distinctive calls and camouflaged plumage.

C) **Spoonbill:** Spoonbills are a genus (Platalea) of large wading birds belonging to the family Threskiornithidae (ibises and spoonbills). They are characterized by their distinctive spoon-shaped bills, used for sifting through water for food.

D) **White Ibis:** The White Ibis (Eudocimus albus) is a medium-sized wading bird found in coastal wetlands and marshes of the Americas. It is part of the Ibis family and is distinctly a bird.

Therefore, Golden Mahseer is the only option that is not a bird; it is a fish.
