After coming back from my vacation, I have not made trips to any new place. Just had made couple of visits to Hebbal lake. I do not have much to write here except that these photographs have been taken over a period of 2-3 visits. (Note: Click on the photograph to view the larger version)
Grey tit can be seen quite often playing around in sun |
Purple heron sitting at its usual place in early morning light. |
Brahminy kite hovering around looking for some kill |
Ashy prina can always be found busy doing something under bushes. After a while it comes out in open. |
Purple rumped sunbirds are very busy during morning. Just wait for a while and you can get it close enough and get a decent shot. |
One more closeup shot of Purple rumped sunbird. See its face is covered with pollen. |
Purple moorhen is very common bird here. |
White-cheeked Barbet can be seen sometimes, though most of the times it is perched high on trees. This time I got it close enough though. |
Red-whiskered bulbul is so commonly seen all around Bangalore and Hebbal lake is no different. This time it seems to have got something for breakfast. |
Another shot of Grey tit. |
Tickell's flycatcher can be seen sometimes. I have spotted it about 3-4 times at Hebbal. |
Tickell's flowerpecker is another bird that is very common here. Wait for some time and it gets very close to you and gives chance to shoot frame filling shots. |
Purple rumped sunbird checking out a flower for some nectar. |
Small blue kingfisher has some fixed places where it can be spotted easily. |
Tailor bird can also be seen in plenty, but strangely I haven't able to get more shots of this bird. This is the best that I have got. |
