The Baikal teal (Anas Formosa) is a migratory duck that breeds in eastern Siberia and China and winters in South and Southeast Asia. The species has been recorded in India, but its distributional records are scarce. In this paper, we report a new distributional record of Baikal teal in Rajdhani Jalashay, Patna, and Bihar, India. The presence of only a single male for some days indicated that it might have deviated from its usual migration path.
