While I was waiting for my friend, I was wondering if there are some interesting subjects to shoot. This widespread Red-whiskered Bulbul started posing and I grabbed my camera to quickly capture it before it flew-away. It is also called Turaha pigli-pitta in Telugu. This species was once a popular cagebird in parts of India.

Isolation in participation

Days passed by like a blink of an eye. It is very weird to know that when you want to pass time, the clock doesn't tick. However, when you care damn about what's happening with life and just get engaged with some activities, you get old before the clock finishes its round. Yes, I am talking about how fast days passed without my notice. There were no posts recently and I was not updating my facebook status too. Sounds like I was isolated totally but hell no. I was more active than before and for those who wanted to know what kept me so busy, here it is. It was photography which kept me occupied for a long time and then some trips. But, where are all the pictures I took since three years now? Well, I have been only learning and not really publishing pictures. So, there is something which I want to share with everyone and I will make sure it doesn't bore you guys.

Unplanned trip - Sakleshpur

My friend wanted to buy a Royal Enfield (Bullet 1970 model) and asked me if I could accompany him till Hassan. Without a second thought, took my Verna and started late afternoon.

Woke up at around 5:00 AM and explored the surroundings. It was birds everywhere, singing in different tunes. Though I had my camera with me, I was just enjoying the moment without capturing them. Had a yummy breakfast at 6:30 and returned to our place. While exploring further, we were amused to see how wonderful the estate was.

On Wings

This picture was taken at Thippagondanahalli (TG Halli) dam on Magadi road. TG Halli dam or popularly known as Chamarajasagar is around 35 kms from Bengaluru. The two rivers, Arkavaty and Kamudavati confluence here. This place actually looks isolated but if you manage to spot the backside of the dam, that is where one finds the beautiful birds. I had tough time that morning to find a single bird. When I followed a group of ladies who were carrying water on top, the scenic beauty demystified. It is a peaceful place, good for fishing and bird-watching.
