An Indian White Eye foraging on a rainy day

A common colorful bird found across the country in a variety of habitats. These are small birds maybe around 10-15 cms and always seen in small groups. I love these birds and would never miss an opportunity to shoot them!

 

They are quite common in forests / thick wooded areas in the countryside, especially in areas with lots of flowers or small berry type of fruiting plants - these berries are very small, less than a little fingernail size and are quite popular with small birds. The place we visited had a few of these plants and flowering trees - many of them were blooming at that time , so these small birds had a good time there with easy availability of food. They just needed to watch out for the monkeys , Kingfishers, Shikra's and other predators though.

 

Thanks in advance for your views and feedback Much appreciated.
