Purple Sunbird in my garden |
This week was quite exciting in terms of sighting birds. Not in terms of sighting uncommon birds though. Typically I only get to see crows and sparrows in my garden so I was elated to spot some other varieties as well.
I was lucky to sight purple sunbirds in my garden, and also a kingfisher, and a black kite near my house. All this from the comfort of my terrace! What fun!
These pictures are not great, I wasn't really prepared for birding, and took these snaps from a 7X camera.

Excellent shots..
Nice to have so many birds around.
O u must be living in a green surrounding. I so envy you, though i admit that there are some squirrels and a generous amount of crows around my place
wow your terrace is heaven for bird lovers !!
@Thanks so much, Rajesh, Indrani, Ritesh, and mysay.
There is some amount of green in my terrace and our garden, and birds do visit but not as often as I would like them to.
Like your area Ritesh, crows dominate here as always:)
Lovely captures!!
Excellent Capture
Thanks, Chandini
