It has been a long time since I posted a bird picture. It is not that I don’t click them anymore. But bird photography requires a lot of time and patience and I guess I lack the first for sure and many would vouch that I lack the second too! But here is one picture…

Peacocks in Plenty at Lakshman Sagar, Pali, Rajasthan
I do not find it that unusual to find peacock around. Both my collages had them at the campus, only I was not into photography then! But it has been a long long time since college so when I got to hear to the annoying sound that peacocks make I was rather glad. However bird…
Spot Billed Ducks at Hauz Khas, Delhi
I have to admit I was crazy about bird photography once. I bought a macro lens (75-300 mm) thinking I would click flowers. After I got the Macro I started chasing the birds instead. I did it for a long time. But I would never be too happy with my pictures barring a few. And I always…
Hotspots for Birding in Malaysia

Birds at Bharatpur, Rajasthan, India
For quite sometime at Bharatpur I roamed alone while my husband and daughter had a later start at that day. I had seen Black Headed Ibis at Mangalajodi too. So at Bharatpur I recognized it on my own! I met these Rose Ringed Parakeets right at the beginning of the park. They look so…
Painted Storks at Bharatpur
The young painted storks (without any color) asking for food from the adult at the Bharatpur Bird Sanctuary.
Neighborhood Bird Watch
Don’t go by the color of the water, this is a ditch in the neighborhood where lapwings are a regular feature. I have observed that these birds lay their eggs on the ground and if by mistake if you start walking that way, they scream and scream. I had first clicked this bird on a…
