Went on a birding trip last month, didn't find much time to post the pics here. All the pics are using my point and shoot(I needed the reach), so excuse the image quality.
The trip was to a village called Bashipota, an untouched and little known village, famous only among the veteran birders, one of whom invited me to this trip. We left at 4:30 AM in the morning, reached here at about 6AM and found endless fields bathing in the beautiful golden sunlight.
I thought a look at the terrains would be called for, so I've included some of the landscapes and a street shot before the actual bird photographs!
#1. Endless Crop fields: This is the view we got at 6AM in the morning.
#2. Some local farmer going to work
#3. Photographers getting in position
#4. A sight to behold
And now come the birds, the birds gave us a hard time probably because they are not used to being photographed or chased around, one of the disadvantages of a virgin destination. There were quite a few species, here are the few decent one's I got:
#5. Brown Shrikes in golden sunlight
#6. ID unknown
#7. ID Unknown
#8. A flock if Brown Shrikes
#9. Another pair
#10. Cattle Egret
#11. Asian Open-bill Stork
