Do you remember the bird I show you on last WBW, the one I said a
Crested Serpent Eagle? Well, my identification was wrong, it was infact a
Shikra. I was able to photograph another one this week. It makes two
Shikras in two consecutive weeks!
Shikra, Accipiter badius
This
White-breasted Drongo was right in front of our house.
White-breasted Drongo,Dicrurus caerulescens
Perched on the same wire was this very sympathetic White-throated Kingfisher.
White-throated Kingfisher, Halcyon smyrnensis
Time for another ID correction. What I showed you as an
Ashy Prinia last week was really a Plain Prinia. Below is another photo of one. I'll show you an Ashy Prinia soon, both Ashy and Plain Prinia can be observed near paddy fields around here. Come back for more birds on next Wednesday.
Plain Prinia, Prinia inornata
The last bird I'm showing you this week is this White-breasted Waterhen hiding among paddy in a freshly planted field.
A post for
World Bird Wednesday.
