Description
English: Santragachi Lake (bn: Santragachi Jheel) located adjacent to the Santragachi railway station, Howrah, India.

Lesser Whistling Duck is the most dominant species visible here; Northern Pintail, Baikal Teal and other migratory birds are also visible. The lake area is owned by South Eastern Railway, India, though the Forest Department of West Bengal also looks after the place. Forest ministry of the Government of West Bengal intends to convert the lake to a Wildlife Conservation Centre.
