#10. Early risers catch the birds!
























































Sunbird has long curved beak which is idea for sucking honey out of tubular flowers. Tecomea is one such flower. This morning I was able to capture a sunbird frolicking and sucking nectar on a Tecoma bush.
Smaller birds perch and roost on trees which are safe from predators. They could be thorny (like babool) or high up from the ground (like bamboo).
I hope you will enjoy the snaps.

#9. Butterflies: Some Photographs
























































I Chased Butterflies
Everyday is Sunday to me, and this Thursday afternoon was no different. After a short siesta it was teatime for me, and then I went to the backgarden and saw two butterflies. Swati brought the camera and I caught them. You have to see them enjoying the lazy afternoon.










And to round up, a house sparrow flying away from babool!
