Fantastic action shots of the butterflies 🦋
ReplyDeleteWhat fantastic photos.
ReplyDeleteI really like the butterflies and the birds.
But the male Rock Agama lizard and the reflection of you in the eyes is really amazing.
I wish you a very nice weekend.
Greetings Irma
Great nature shots (except the helicopters of course).That first bird is really stunning and so are the rest.Thumbs up.
ReplyDeleteWow, gorgeous photos! I love the Bulbul, the lizard, the Kingfisher and Myna birds. The butterflies are just lovely. Neat capture of the helicopter and beautiful view. Beautiful post! Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a happy weekend! PS, thank you for leaving me a comment.
ReplyDeleteI would be happy to "contend with" your local birds any time......and your butterflies, and other insects, and reptiles and amphibians....... Wanna trade houses for a month?
ReplyDeleteYour photos are amazing. They are close to some of our birds, but slightly different colours. I love them all!
ReplyDeleteYes, a helicopter does belong in a collection of fabulous bird photos! I love your imagination.
ReplyDeletebest... mae at maefood.blogspot.com
Kingfishers always seem a little comical to me, maybe because of their huge beak and wild colors. The squirrel is interesting, very different from ours. Its been a treat visiting this post filled with amazing photos.
ReplyDeleteYou really do see a nice variety! Beautiful photos and I really love those vans in the first photo! WOW!
ReplyDeleteA lovely Pomegranate flower! Never saw one.
ReplyDeleteWhat a gang of critters!
Gosh!!! Your photos are absolutely stunning. My favourite is the one of the squirrel. Yeah...I love those vans in your first shot too. Very nice!
ReplyDeleteamazing views of the creatures of the world #MySundayPhoto
ReplyDeleteI mist definitely liked your images!! I always do. In fact I am in awe of your photography. Today's photos are stellar!
ReplyDeleteStay virus free, be safe birding, and thanks for linking in!

The timing of those insect images was spectacular! I'm also loving the kingfisher shot. As for the grey squirrel, I am assuming us British are to blame for them being in your country (and if so, I do apologise!). I do enjoy your flaura and forna pics, always very colourful.
ReplyDelete...another beautiful collection of images. One is nicer than the preceding, thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos! I especially enjoyed seeing the Dragonflies. Love the butterflies, too!
ReplyDeleteAnd the lizards - awesome portraits!
i enjoyed seeing your butterflies, some i have seen in confinement!! the red-whiskered bulbul is beautiful, your image of it gorgeous!!
ReplyDeletecool capture of the lizard, it is nice to see it up close and be able to view all of it's details!!
Fantastic photos. I don't think I've ever seen a pomegranate flower before and that tiger butterfly is beautiful x
ReplyDeleteYour nature shots are awesome ~ so professional ~ Wow!

Your captures are amazing! The details of the dragonfly wings should win awards.
ReplyDeleteAmazing shots of nature x #mysundayphoto
ReplyDeleteFabulous sighting Shiju, the one of the that I love was Jungle Myna, but, every shots.
ReplyDeleteFascinating! Even the trucks were fascinating!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing at https://image-in-ing.blogspot.com/2021/08/a-few-from-archives.html
Seems to me that you don't need the migration season to take stunning shots. I'm loving those 🦎 today as a change from birds. We have few lizards or snakes in the UK.
ReplyDeleteSo neat to see the lizards; I have only seen lizards at the zoo here in the States.
ReplyDeleteFantastic captures as always all of them great photography :-)
ReplyDeleteHave a capturetastic week 👍
The snow capped mountain tops in photo #1 were so pretty and reminds me of the area I live in. I also enjoed allt he close ups of butterflies and dragonfly with the clear wings.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your series of photos this week. You have shown me many things I have not seen before such as the pomegranate flower. Thank you for sharing your wonderful photos.
ReplyDeleteIt's incredible to me to think that the bulbul and that beautiful Kingfisher are "everyday" birds for you!! All of your pictures are (as always) stunning. Most people would not be good enough to capture their reflection in a lizard's eye! I was surprised to see all the travel vans in the first picture -- from your pictures, it never seems like there are any other people around the lake!!
ReplyDeleteNo common creatures here! I feel like I just went on safari. Thanks for taking me with you.
ReplyDeleteto be off season you have a lot to share. Love the oddlooking cars. Are they for real??
ReplyDeleteThe bee visiting the blue flower is amazing. Beautiful shot. The White-throated Kingfisher seem to have a goos laugh. :)
Thanks for sharing.
The vans are not real, Photoshop generated.
DeleteFabulous photos. I especially love the birds and the butterflies. I can't wait to see the uncommon if these are the ordinary ones!
ReplyDeleteGreat shots my friend. Spring is around the corner here in Australia and even though we are locked down I find new plants to take photos of and that makes me happy!
ReplyDeleteThank you for joining the Life This Week crew on my blog with your post. Next week the optional prompt is sharing your snaps. I hope to see your post there, on or off prompt and wish you well too. Denyse.
Awesome nature pictures!
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos!
ReplyDeleteDelightful, I've never seen a squirrel as relaxed as that one!
ReplyDeleteWow, you got some great captures of the various birds, insects, and lizards you saw that day as well as the sky and the mysterious helicopter.
ReplyDeleteGreat shots
ReplyDeleteBeautiful collection of photos. The lizard photos are exceptional!
ReplyDeleteStunning collections of photos
ReplyDeleteStunning captures, Shiju, esp the sky shot! Visiting your blog after a long time. Hope all is good at your end.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely weekend.
Cheers,
Esha
You always catch the most beautiful moments! The hairdoes of some birds are hilarious.
ReplyDeleteThe birds and butterflies are beautiful, but I love seeing the lizard photos. Nice reflection in the eye of the male. Thank you for linking up and have the best weekend.
ReplyDeleteStunningly beautiful kingfisher photo!
ReplyDeleteWow, lots to see! I always love your bird photos, but the insects are stunning too. My favourite is the squirrel relaxing though!

I love how relaxed that squirrel looks - we could all do with some down time I think!
