Tree Pie- A Regular Bird in the Backyard
Tree Pie has been the other elusive bird in and around my place. I have posted their pictures before. But I think these are a little better. They were taken yesterday along with the butterflies. Let us see if I can get out today again to click a few more butterflies.
Anybody Home?
Due to the Commonwealth Games my college is now closed for the next 2 weeks. I cannot remember that I ever got a 15 day break in the middle of a teaching semester ever. I thought I need to get out and click the palm tree that is full of weaver bird nests in my…
When the Ground Moves Beneath Your Feet!
These sparrows remind me of the day at Naldehra when the ground moved beneath my feet for a moment. This was day 2 and I was walking in the direction of the Dharampur village. I had reached the small village market where there was a gathering of people, all curious about the newcomer to their…

Black Drongo and Greater Racket Tailed Drongo, Both Subadults
I usually click these birds either near the parking lot or on my way to the ATM. I wish I could withdraw money everyday so that I could walk and get to click birds. The one below, the Greater Racket tailed Drongo was quite fond of the Volley Ball net!
Going Home!
I remember one day in November I was clicking a sunset from my balcony and I wanted a bird to fly across! Well, on Friday I was staying late in the institute and I managed to click quite a few birds flying across the sunset! Ain’t I lucky? Take a guess how many there were?…
Look Where I Landed!
Once again clicked right after parking my car. From the opposite side a person was coming. He asked me something and came close so noisily that all the parrots flew away!
