Scaly-breasted Munia Making Nest

Seeing a scaly-breasted munia, with mechanical precision, gathering pieces of grass and going up the ornamental arecanut tree, raised my curiosity. I followed the munia, and to my surprise, it was building its nest there. It was in-between the trunk of the tree and its large leaf. Considering the size of the bird, it was an ambitious project –a big nest, with a round opening to its side.

Butterflies Of India: A Long List With Pictures

I am not a Lepidopterist, but a photographer. I love photographing birds and butterflies for the reason that they are free beings like me-of-my-dreams. They inspire me. They move, they fly, hide; and if we want to capture them, we have to adjust ourselves to their rhythm, mood and behavioural patterns. It is an exercise in patience and waiting.

Birds of Bengaluru, Karnataka

'Excellent collection of birds', people comment, and ask, 'where do you find them in this city?' I taking a believable posture and tone proudly say, ‘right in the place where you and me live' -in the green patches of Bangalore. The truth is, every tree and green patch in our city is home to numerous birds, if only we had the time and patience to see them. These are natural inhabitants of our city. They unceremoniously survive in the remaining green cover of our city.

Dark Blue Tiger Butterfly

Dark Blue Tigers, Tirumala septentrionis, don't come to stay. They appear from nowhere. They are around for a while; and they are gone. It is the case with many other butterflies too. As I spot them during the sunny part of the day, I often wonder as to where do they come from, and where do they go?
