CUCKOO PAYS A VISIT



Early morning today, I's preparing tea in the kitchen and saw through the window the cuckoo perched on a pillar all relaxed in a meditating pose. Clicked.


It sensed my presence and was readying to fly away and i clicked. Though, as i moved in it stayed there for quite some time.



Friends,welcome here as always!

CELEBRATING SINGLES!




Parrots are a common sight here. However, you see them always in  groups and in extreme  rush as if they are on an emergent mission. When i chance to hear  their shrill squeaking sound, I look up and find a group flying, so to say, at  breakneck speed.
Yesterday, I's surprised to see this one alone and moodily relaxing on the electric wire in front of our house. I clicked it before it'd decided to sprint away.

Here is a cuckoo perched on a stone,busy in  planning the next move. Shot taken in hills during this summer.

This bird is sighted off and on around here.While it's head, tail and lower part is black the feathers on its flanks are rust colored. Here, perched on the wall with ruffled feathers,it seems to be in a thoughtful mood. An early morning shot, when the atmosphere is hazy.


Friends,welcome here as always!
