Redshank - Tringa Totanus
The common redshank is a widespread breeding bird across temperate Eurasia. It is a migratory species, wintering on coasts around the Mediterranean, on the Atlantic coast of Europe from Ireland and Great Britain southwards, and in South Asia. They are uncommon vagrants outside these areas.
They are wary and noisy birds which will alert everything else with their loud piping call. Like most waders, they feed on small invertebrates. Redshanks will nest in any wetland, from damp meadows to saltmarsh, often at high densities. They lay 3–5 eggs.
The common redshank is one of the species to which the Agreement on the Conservation of African-Eurasian Migratory Waterbirds (AEWA) applies.
It is widely distributed and quite plentiful in some regions, and thus not considered a threatened species by the IUCN.
Kaziranga National Park is a national park in the Golaghat and Nagaon districts of the state of Assam, India. The park, which hosts two-thirds of the world's great one-horned rhinoceroses, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.[2] According to the census held in March 2018 which was jointly conducted by the Forest Department of the Government of Assam and some recognized wildlife NGOs, the rhino population in Kaziranga National Park is 2,613.

Asian Adventures.
Quite recently, I posted 2 pics of the flower bract of one of my pineapple plants. This week, the fruit was harvested - small but very sweet and fragrant!
at the UC Berkeley Botanical Garden. The rhododendrons are especially pretty…! Most or all them are in the Asia section of the Garden…..the native home of most varieties. There are some N.American natives which used to be my friends in North Carolina.

Taken from the cottage in Point Roberts, I find this image very meaningful. The sun is setting on Roberts Bank Superport. If you follow the setting sun, you will end up in Asia, which Roberts Bank Superport owes its existence to. For more information: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roberts_Bank_Superport

Clicked at the Ranganathittu Bird Sanctuary, this large wading bird in the Stork family is found mainly in the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia. Their name is derived from the distinctive gap formed between the recurved lower and arched upper mandible of the beak in adult birds. The cutting edges of the mandible have a fine brush like structure that is thought to give them better grip on the shells of snails. The usual foraging habitats are inland wetlands and are only rarely seen along river banks and tidal flats. On agricultural landscapes, birds forage in crop fields, irrigation canals, and in seasonal marshes. Groups may forage together in close proximity in shallow water or marshy ground on which they may walk with a slow and steady gait. They feed mainly on large molluscs separating the shell from the body of the snail using the tip of their beak.
This is similar to my previous shot at this spot but I took this as the sun was setting on Expedition Everest and this version is HDR from three bracketed exposures.
You definitely have to view this one large on black.
