Graceful Prinia in the Backyard
I went out today to the backyard to pick some Basil leaves which I wanted to add to my tea. That is when i saw this new bird in the backyard. It has such a long tail and looked a little ferocious. I initially thought it could be a juvenile of some big bird. But when I went to Rajiv’s briding site I realized it is Graceful Prinia. In fact Ashy Prinias are a regular visitors to my backyard.
These days there are so many birds in my area that I think if I get up early I can actually go bird watching in the neighborhood itself! Also the biggest tease is the purple sunbird. I have seen it so many times these days but have to click a decent shot yet!

Tarun, when the battery of my DSLR conked in the middle of the Bird Feast (see next post) I did take out my point and shoot and I was surprised at the zoom it had, I was sitting very close to the scene and yet everything was so tiny!
With birds I shoot first and think later!
