win shot

 

this bird working a very strugling

From three years i was working on this picture, following them, sometimes I visited that place before breeding and sometime after it. Then finally I decided to stay for this shot and after 2 months effort I m succeed to take this picture.

I deeply in love with birds and I m doing research on them since my childhood. Pakistan has 671 types of breeds of birds, and I captured 593 of them. I would love to do more work on them and its all on my behalf. I bear all my expenses’ myself but still I m optimist person

 

thanx

 

 

2-Once I was passing through this area and I looked that bird in this, so it attract me a lot and then I came here again to capture this shot.

 

 

3-It was a long period to take this shot at least 2 months. There was a garden and a tree of the loquat. And a small water pond was passing there. And their parents are very quickly fed them there. they were 4 baby birds. And they were went out from their nest and set on branches of the tree. Every kid wanted that their parents feed them first. It was all very quick and sudden. So then I got that moment which I want and then captured this shot. The male bird was more active then female. He fed them more then their mother and they were so caring about their babies even some people passed from there and male bird attack on them to protect their babies .But they were perhaps more frank with me as I spend 2 months with them they felt comfortable with me rather than the strangers.

 

After fed them the mother stay in other branch on tree and then fly from there

 

 

4-This picture is my 2 months effort and after that I am succeed to took this shot so there is no need of any manipulation in it

I was very excited for this picture was little bit confused but I feel very lucky that I cover all this moment perfectly. And I feel this is the unique type of shot I captured. So those moments were very value able for me

 

 

 

Thanks & kind regards,
