    We must have had the same thought this week about bird watching. You captured some beautiful feathered creatures.

    What beautiful birds! Is this a zoo? Are they all native to India?

    Hi Terri – it is a night heron. Took these pictures at the Chennai Zoo. :-)It was very gorgeous – the texture of its feathers was quite breath-taking!

    Amazing, Tara, because your blog is the first one I usually visit even before I do my Sunday post. Today I hadn’t. 🙂 Your pictures are beautiful, as always!

    @Laurie – it was so soothing to just stand and stare at them. They just sat around as though they had not a care in the world. They probably didn’t 😀

    Lovely birds. I wish I knew the names of all of them.

  12. Unknown Mami Unknown Mami December 12, 2011

    Such lovely birds. My favorite picture is the first one.

    Thank you, Rachel. 😉 And thank my camera.

    Betsy, yes – these pictures are from the Chennai(Madras) zoo. Most of them are native to India, Vidur would know better. It was such a pleasure to visit.

    Hi Kim – My pleasure! Yes, we have cardinals here – such pretty colorful little birds! We have several bird sanctuaries in India. I’ve only visited one, though.

  17. Vidya Sury Vidya Sury December 12, 2011

    Thanks, Renee, that heron was quite fascinating! It sat still for so long! I think I could have gotten a picture of its eyeball if I wished. 🙂

  18. Vidya Sury Vidya Sury December 12, 2011

    Hi Keetha! They’re mostly herons and ducks. And one cassowary. But specifically, my son knows the names of all these birds.
