This must be the prettiest of all Babblers found in India. Golden Babbler, a smallish babbler, at just 10 cm, was jumping around in the dense undergrowth, in Himalayan hills. Took a break from feeding to come out and check the single ray of sun. #IndiAves #BirdsSeenIn2025 #India

Summer starts, and the loud calls with a 'kutrrrr' note from this bird are heard in most areas with trees. The brown headed Barbet with a ber-ry for today. #IndiAves #ThePhotoHour #birds #BirdsOfTwitter #Canon #dailypic

Rufous Throated Wren Babbler An unexpected Lifer, and the highlight of the trip. You know it's special when your local guide is more excited than you are, and tells you he hasn't seen this bird in ages Worth the 3 hours of Insect bites I guess #IndiAves #BirdsSeenIn2025 #India

The Purple Heron on top of a tall tree with a lookout pose. It was cloudy and windy and plumage looked good with its two feathers on the head swaying. #indiaves #birds #BirdsOfTwitter #ThePhotoHour #natgeo #canon

Malabar Grey Hornbill landed on a tree just above me! With smaller birds, the angle is not conducive, but this one was not bad for such a steep angle! #IndiAves #TambdiSurla #Goa #TwitterNatureCommunity #BirdsOfTwitter #natgeoindia #BBCWildlifePOTD #birding #birdwatching #birds

Leopard Waiting for mom. She can’t come up, the cub can’t go down as a lion pride had made a hippo kill not far away. The anxious wait captured by my daughter. #IndiAves #BBCWildlifePOTD #natgeo #SonyAlpha #ThePhotoHour
