Rainy-day Birding ...
Another image
taken on that ...
rainy-day
...
when Sun gave some
lucky ... though
dim glimpses ...
... as seen in the
eye of this
beautiful Ruff ...
but it is so weak
... that there is
no shadow of the
bird on water ...
Simply adore these
birds ... who
light-up
even a dull
birding day ... with
their presence
and energy ...
... even in their
non-breeding Plumage ...
that we always see in
India ...
apart from occasional
vestiges of
those halcyon days in
their life-cycle ...
