Morning visitor
Every morning, when I stand looking out of my window, I see a few birds, chipmunks very closely.
They don't notice me most of the time.
That day, I saw sunlight beautifully lighting up the fur and hairs of this little fellow.
I also saw a few green bee eaters, its better to get out of bed early this weekend :)

My father brought me a bunch of these flowers. These flowers are really strange and I saw them first time.
I wish to go to the garden and see these on the trees.

I really struggled to give a suitable title for this photo.
On Saturday morning, I saw this little owlet on the ground and in very vulnerable condition. There were several morning walkers in the park and my father and his friends tried to protect this little one.
When we first saw this little owlet, it was taking shelter on the ground next to a tree. It was weak and fragile.
We looked up and could locate another bigger owlet which must be the mother.
Nobody there had any idea what to do with birds specially this one and how to take care of it. The best thing we did was to take pick it and keep where there were sunrays coming to keep him warm.
But it stood up and moved back closer to the wall or tree again. We threw a piece of cloth around him.
I called several friends but I had to leave for home. By the time the "bird lover" was contacted me back, I was back home. On his request, I went back to check only to see that the baby was not there and neither the mother owlet.
I searched and I really hope best for this poor chap.
I know when the baby bird falls out of nest, its the end of the story !
I sincerely hope this didnt happen this time again.

Monkey
The recent trip to safari was more or less "monkey" business.
The jungles are lush green and everybody seems to be merry !
Lets wait till the onset of summers

The Web Master
This spider was pretty big and scary. Including its legs, it was definitely bigger than size of my palm.
I could not get a sharp photo, it was bit dull and shutter speed was limited

There are so many options and the camera is so much configurable, I am finding it very bit tough to get used to it :)

The hunt...
The strange way of Nature, the dragon fly eating one its own kind..
The bigger one caught the little one, and ate up
At first, I felt bit nervous, but I guess its just for survival

All bird photos goes untitled as I dont know the bird id. What a shame :(
If you can provide ID for this and others, it will be great help.

This photo is cropped too tightly.
I guess 200mm is too short for any birding :D
As always, I dont know the name of the bird :D
