Grey Breasted Laughing Thrush, Kerela, Feb 2009. The bird came up suddenly from the Tea bushes along the road, in the moning sun.

Canon 40D + 70-300IS, Apreture Priority.

SS 1/200; F/8; ISO 250.

Ohh...I wish it were perched on a tree or bush rather than elements displaying the ugly hand of man. Ofcourse, the title is apt.

The head is tilted away so the eye contact is not great. Do you have any more images from this series? The background is nicely diffused. The composition is good. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi

Yes the wire does look Ugly!. He just popped out of the bushes and I had just enough time to get a couple of decent shots. the second of which I will share, the third frame just had a blur of feathers.
