Another one where I tried to use the available light to create stand-out. I guess light has become my new obsession. Till date have been successful at using light only on still objects. Lets see if I can use this in the coming birding season.

Stand out

I was always in a dilemma, as to whether join the crowd be safe or stand out and be seen. But I guess this pic clears my doubt. I would stand out in the crowd and be seen. But what if I get 'shot'

I can climb the Everest if needed

This butterfly somehow tells me it can climb the Everest. Just my personal thought to it. Just the way I feel everytime I look at it. Looks like this guy can scale anything, any height.

And ofcourse he did. I waited a while to see what he does after this, and lo behold... he was up there. Never seen butterflies climb. What are wings for??

Another from the butterfly series

Flies are attracted to humans. thats why they keep bugging us all the time. But humans are attracted to butterflies, That why we keeping clicking them.

Another visit to bannerghatta proved this. Bugged by my friends after seeing the pics from my first trip, they forced me for another trip. Here is a sample from the trip.

More to come. Stay tunn....

Spotted a sparrow

Its been a long time I spotted a house sparrow around. I remember the time when I used to put out some seed for the sparrows in our portico before going to school.

Though the original sparrow is no more available for clicks in Bangalore, I spotted 2 varieties of the same. An ashy crowned sparrow lark and another sparrow lark. Here they are. Click for larger versions

 

A crowned Sparrow lark, about to take flight.
