Waiting @ Dining table

Ready with a knot for the prey…The Impaler, Shrike.This one looks cute but tiny vicious killer in the bird world, impale their victims bodies on thorns, the spikes on barbed-wire fences, or any available sharp point. This helps them to tear the flesh into smaller, more conveniently-sized fragments, and serves as a cache so that the shrike can return to the uneaten portions at a later time. This one is surfing for its prey waiting at the dining table…

WWF Eco-Trail

by admin· July 16, 2017· in Photography· 0 comments
The first group of birds that we came across when we reached Okhla Bird Sanctuary were a couple of warblers. Small yet they traveled a lot to reach here. After entering we came across a few white breasted waterhens andslowly we were given the basic idea of how you do bird watching some using eyes and some using ears. Another basic knowledge that we got was to differentiate between a kite and a Marsh harrier. From the watch tower we got a nice view of the wet land and birds on it. A fleet of greylag geese flew past us and we saw painted storks, also grey heron.  Lots of birds around and it is really great to have someone along with you who knows about it.  Eco trail was both  visually enriching and informative. My favorite moment was to catch a glimpse of crested serpent eagle juvenile. Thank you World Wildlife Fund for this opportunity.

Early morning to reach a place far from all the city hassle itself is a great accomplishment. This place is occupied by birds of various size and behavior who live like a community in this wet land, also few Nilgais and regular cattle who roam free in this terrain as these animals don’t have to fear any large predators. I was fortunate enough to see a wild hare ,wild cat and a couple of jackals. After spending around 7 and a half hours  I still felt like “Miles to go before I leave’…

  • Wildlife First November 4, 2025
    As the weather starts getting colder always remember when working with wildlife they come first and the last thing you want to do is to impose yourself to quickly or scare the subject you’re wishing to photograph.

  • Wild Encounters October 19, 2025

Taking your images as seen, showing natural behaviour is something you should always strive for. Respect, subject knowledge and a sense […]

  • Wolves, Bears, Wolverines September 30, 2025
    Finland is one of Europe’s last places of true wilderness. During the summer months the sun rarely sets giving you almost twenty-four hours of light. Devoid of humans, interrupted only by the occasional roar of Bears or the haunting howl of Wolves. The stillness of this place is just beautiful along with its remoteness, giving […]
