Treepie

Treepie.org is up again. So if you are a birder and are looking for a site to consolidate your bird lists, join it and manage your lists.

I am now linking birds with superb pictures posted by the growing community of excellent wildlife photographers in India Nature Watch and pictures from google image search.

Turahalli

Chirdeep and I had gone owl hunting to this place called Turahalli. Do not know if we actually reached there but we did end up on a nice patch with lots of rocks around. No owls, but we managed to see rock agamas. Loads of them. Every rock was ruled by one.
Soon bored, bouldering entertained us briefly.
Then we came across a neat white cheeked barbet surprisingly sitting on an electric line absolutely unperturbed by our photographic intentions and let us come quite close to it.
Also managed a decent shot of a pied bushchat.
