Record Shot - White Cheeked Barbet!

[Praveen Siddannavar]

Shot this tiny barbet at my farm on 20th Aug'10 @ 1pm. I could see about 5-6 barbets feasting on the banyan tree fruits. This is the first time I sighted barbets i my farm:)

Nice record image. Looks like it was quite far off. The eye contact is nice. Thanks for sharing.

Shutter speed was low. Despite that the leaf is in focus and sharp. Looks like the barbet has also moved. Good that you got a record of fruits and barbets. How big is the tree?

Cheers,
