Colour me bright,
Colour me happy,
Colour me vivid, with the hues of life....

King of Good Times

Kingfishers are friendly birds. They are neither scared by humans, nor by crows who generally bully the rest of bird community.This one actually posed for my pics. It tilted it's head and looked at me through it's gleaming eyes.

Fiery Dragon Flies


These dragon flies were clicked by my ever enthusiastic Mom, who was trying to learn how to use TZ4. She wants to learn all new gadgets and tells, "Dont make me an outdated old lady". Kudos to you Amma!!!!

A Bird's Eye View

I decided to venture upon this blog after I got my first camera, Panasonic TZ4. It was in fact a wedding gift from my dear friends. It was also the time when I got hooked on to bird watching. I usually look out for the birds that visit the backyard of my home.
There is this vast field filled with paddy, plantain, tapioca, jackfruit and nutmeg trees behind my home which belongs to a convent and it is the favourite rendezvous of a variety of birds. And as soon as I spot a birdie, I immediately check it out in my 'Book of Indian Birds'. I don't intend to restrict myself to bird photography and hence I will click whatever suit my whims and fancies and post it here.
Welcome to A BIRD'S EYE VIEW !!!!!

PS: I have spotted koel, bulbul, king fisher, barbet, racket tailed drongo(kakka thampuratti), indian tree-pie(olennali), robin, eurasian golden oriole, woodpecker, shikra, bee-eater, waterhen(kulakozhi) in my backyard.
