Winged beauties of Hebbal


First Sunday of the year saw me at the beautiful Hebbal lake in Bangalore. Here are some winged beauties I saw in the misty morning...



Sunrise...



Bright green in the mist...


Indian Pond Heron...



Take off...


Flight...



Ashy Prinia...



Little Egret caught a little fish...


Ashy Drongo caught a bee...



Common Tailorbird also seems to have caught a worm...


Rose-ringed Parakeet...


Little Egret in flight...



White-cheeked Barbet...








Show-stopper of the day was this Purple-rumped Sunbird...

  8. Beautiful captures! I came across via Skywatch Friday because of your Sunbird in the thumbnail.Indeed a showstopper. I loved the Ashy Drongo with a bee. I relate to all the birds you showed as many of them fly the great distance from Asia to Africa! Greetings Jo (South Africa)
