A few birds spotted in Kodagu

Red-Whiskered Bulbul, Madikeri, Feb 2012
Long-tailed Shrike, Katikeri village, late Feb 2012
Grey Wagtail


Grey Wagtail basking in the December (2010) morning sun on the road in Kakkabe, Kodagu. Kakkabe is a little village with "home stays" in the midst of Coffee estates that are convenient halts for climbing Tadiyandamol, the tallest peak in this section of the western ghats.


Large Pied Wagtail








Large pied wagtail seen during a morning walk in Kakkabe. The air is incredibly fresh and invigorating. The chirping and calls of a variety of birds can be heard though I am only able to capture these on camera.

Nilgiri Wood Pigeon (?)
