Winter - 21

Life : Even in ... Even if

________

Putting out fabulous
colors ...
... even in winters

And more so ...
... Even in a wetland
...
On the verge of
... Vanishing ...

And even in ...
Low ... winter-morning
Light ...

A great ...
And positive way
To Welcome a
New arrival ...
... A new year

Even in this
... Harsh time ...

And ... Even if
It is a
Harbinger of
More
... Uncertainty
______

Watch the feeding-style
of this fabulous giant
in the vanishing wetland
with original
BG-score of heavy-machinery ...
... construction work ...
and panic-siren ...
so apt for the real sad
situation ...

An outstanding capture of this gorgeous creature. I do hope the new year will bring better news of people understanding what they're doing to hurt the wildlife.

A wonderful stork and a beautiful photograph.
The year starts again with January.
"The same procedure as every year". LOL.
 
Terrific Stork photograph Alok & Renu, you are so lucky to have so many species of birds in your area!!

Stunning bird and image. Such a shame we're squeezing so many species out of habitat ... and dooming ourselves in the process, only that will likely take longer.
 
Its time for them to breed here at Uppalapadu, but we are seeing a decline in numbers this year!! Maybe they have spotted a better spot close by!!! Superb post Alok & Renu!!!
