My camera was lying around since quite a long time...took it out for early morning shoot and got gifted with some fine pics of bird in action :D

Busy eating it's breakfast..
Is this a Flycatcher or a bush chat?


Another pic...

The Indian cormorant or Indian sh@g (Phalacrocorax fuscicollis) is found mainly along the inland waters of the Indian Subcontinent...this one was enjoying the early morning winter sun & dining on the small fishes that are abundant in SGPGI's artificial Jheel...

ID please..


Next week I am planning to visit Nawabganj Bird Sanctuary which is hardly 40kms from my place..Hope to shoot lots of migratory birds with my camera ofcourse :D

Awesome captures Kumarnishith :cheering:
Particularly like your composition & story value in your photographs - the colours are so natural :D
Please correct me if I am wrong - the first 2 pictures seem to be that of a particular variety of sparrow.....
The last one escapes my limited knowledge of the avians :lol:
Keep them coming... they are a treat to watch & admire!
