Himalayas - 553 (Grammatoptila striata)

Himalayas - 553 ...

After having fun
and fill ...

it was time to
leave ... but in
all their kindness
for a mesmerized
photographer ... they
decided to give one
Bolshoi Theatre pose
together ...

... much like a
memento ...

Not an easy bird
to spot ... due to
the type of habitat
and altitude they are
found in ... and
their hyperactive
nature ... making
it difficult to image ...

So ... it was, indeed
a windfall for
us ...
to store
... savor
and
share ...

Beautiful markings on the bird, it reminds me of a Van Gogh painting with the swirls. Thanks for sharing Dr. Alok, you have a pristine picture of a rare to see bird.
