Nice Composition , Beautiful Bird ,in its Natural Habitat eying on berries.It appears to me(from Beak and Blue Colour of the Back) as one young 'Barbet'.Its difficult to specify whether 'Brown-headed' or ''Coppersmith'. However, I am inclined towards Coppersmith Barbet, a regular visitor to my Fruit bearing Trees. Your initiative is praiseworthy.Thanks for sharing.SaktiWild

Nice image of the bird in its habitat...... white cheeked barbet (Megalaima viridis ).

thanks for the Id and encouraging words. I am very poor in identifying birds.

I like the overall habitat portrayed. Coppersmith barbet has a yellow eye ring. This one looks slightly whitish. Difficult colours. The White-cheeked barbet has pale beak like this one. I have no idea how juvenile brown-headed barbet looks. This might be a white-cheeked barbet.

Cheers,
