Bird with Breakfast, A White Browed Bulbul

Dear Friends,

This time we planned Diveagar beach in Dec -18. Idea was to enjoy winter weather at beach & also full day would be available to us for exploring flora & fauna of the place. To our surprise, it was colder in Mumbai / Thane than in Diveagar. So again ,we were left with only morning & evening to move around in open.

Moving around road parallel to beach but with trees & other vegetation on both sides, encountered this beautiful bird enjoying it's morning meal. Keeping a safe enough distance , not to scare the bird, managed few shots & this one with food in it's beak. Sight of fresh, red ripe fruit must be very tempting for them, since it didn't move away, even after spotting us.


Hope you like & enjoy the scene.

Breakfast of fresh fruit :). You captured the right moment. Good eye contact. Wish it was closer for more details. Thanks for sharing.

Great that you clicked when it has a mouthful of bright red breakfast adding to the scene. Fruit and flowering plants are great place to click birds. At times some of these plants in someones backyard yields more good shots than that from a reputed place. Once in a hotel in ranthambhore I clicked sunbirds using a mobile phone. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Nice picture of the bird with the fruit, Vermaji. Looks like the light was pretty harsh, thanks for sharing.
