Rufous / Indian Treepie

[Debasis Bose]

Evening 5.30 pm, shot at Ranthambore, near Singdwar gate. Nikkon D 7000, 150mm, 1/500s. Fearless and omnivorous bird, one came and sat on the rod of our gypsy and then jumped on my daughters hand during on of our safari.

Nice eye contact. Agree these birds have become quite fearless in Ranathambore, they have got used to humans and the feeding. Wish the light had been better. Thanks for sharing.

Nice to see the image of this auspicious bird on Bhatridwitiya. Colours have come out well. Thanks for sharing.SaktiWild

I also found that these birds were unafraid and aggressive like the common crow in Ranthambhor but most shy and difficult to photograph in places like Tadoba .Nice capture.TFS

This bird is not very shy but the ones in ranthambore seem to have got used to humans.

These birds are fed by the guides. One of them had told me that on a bad day when there is no tiger sighting, one can bring these birds close to the tourists and they will get some frame filling shots. A lower angle if possible would have been great. Thanks for sharing.
