I was just in time to witness the beautiful sunrise...
The egrets, stilts and Spot-billed Pelicans were already active in their quest for food...
The rose patch had beautiful yellow roses...
The birds were slowly waking up to life. The walk was made pleasant by the beautiful views and lovely bird calls...
A Red-whiskered Bulbul perched on one of the trees...
A parakeet was active on a tree branch. It had a larger bill than a Rose-ringed parakeet. I guessed it to be a female Alexandrine Parakeet...
An Asian Koel was seen next. From the plumes, I guess it to be a female or an immature male...
Crossandra infundibuliformis, the firecracker flower...
The hike continued...
In the bamboo thickets, I saw a Green Bee-eater with ruffled feathers...
Awesome series.
ReplyDeleteNice to admire so many different birds!
What a beautiful series of photos.
ReplyDeleteAll photos are perfectly photographed, my compliments.
Most of these birds do not occur in the Netherlands.
I wish you a happy Easter.
Greetings Irma

Lovely set of photos my friend. The bee Eater is my favourite today. But I had to smile for the poor swallow with only half of its tail left it will have to grow a new set of wires.
ReplyDelete...thanks for sharing your beautiful images of birds and landscapes that I wouldn't be able to see here.
