Last Sunday, I reached Kasavanahalli lake around sunrise time in the hope of utilizing the golden hour. The morning, however, was cloudy and overcast. Here are some pics from the two hours of unhurried birding...
...
I saw a solitary Painted Stork and decided to hide behind bushes and watch it at leisure until the light improves...
...
...
...
...
...
I was delighted to see a team of Indian spot-billed ducks swimming in interesting formations...
...
...
...
...
...
...
As light improved, I started my walk. A Brahminy kite was seen next...
...
...
...
A movement on the ficus tree made me reach for my binocular. The resident Spotted owlet stared back at me...
...
...
...
...
Here's the catch...
...
And again looking for more
...
A Green bee-eater was seen next...
...
Their mid air hunting sorties were quite interesting to watch...
...
Dragonflies are the prey for a change...
...
A bee-eater removes stings and breaks the exoskeleton of the prey by repeatedly thrashing it on the perch...
...
...
...
A squirrel...
...
View of the waterlily area of the lake...
