Beauty Dressed in Green: Blue Cheeked Bee-eater by RiazSiddiki

Blue Cheeked Bee-eaters are not very common in our region – but this season I spent more time with Blue-Cheeked Bee-eaters, than Green Bee-eaters and Blue-Tailed Bee-eaters………….I must say that every minute spent in the colony had something magical about it………….

Northern Pintail by RiazSiddiki

Went on to meet the winter visitors to Head Marala………..Beautiful Northern Pintail………..our visit was sadly cut short by forest guards……….who confused us with hunters………….and didn’t allow us to sit in our hides…………still it was nice to see birds in good numbers…………
