A small (15-17 cms) blue colored bird that stands out in its environment and easy to spot, but hard to shoot. The birds are found in semi / evergreen forests and wooded areas and within them often sighted flying near streams catching the flies in the area.
The bird is a resident of the Indian subcontinent and found much of the country. The male in this picture sports this rich blue plumage while the female is pale blue in color and lacks the black nape on the head.
Thank you so much in advance for your views, feedback and faves.

Christmas Day
You know the feeling...
Nice lunch and it's time for an afternoon nap
And we did see this owl catch a vole earlier in the day so with a bit of warm sunshine everything in the world was right
Merry Christmas sleepy head!
The Paiute tribe called this lake “Wit-sa-nap.” They believed that lake Wit-sa-nap was created by the Great Spirit as a safe haven for the magical fish—infused with the spirits of children—that swim through the surrounding mountains streams.
The lake is now called Convict Lake, a story I will include in a future posting.
Happy Wednesday! Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for your kind comments, awards and faves -- I appreciate them all.

This week's theme was an easy one for me since you can find me on the floor most of the time :) chose this one and hope it makes you smile - it is our cat napping in the sunshine, guarded by our little deer made of stone. Happy SoS! Have a good weekend and stay safe
Momentos perfectos.

Explore, Jan 18, 2012 #121. Thanks everybody! Gracias a todos!
Since it's very cold and windy with not much going on outside, I got out a lens I haven't used very often and decided to take advantage of Ripley being cozy and cute with only natural light from the window. The dogs have taken over this chair and rearranged the pillows to their liking - making a very cushy and comfortable napping place.
Jake is just starting to be comfortable around me. Mostly he hustles away after being in a window sniffing the lovely spring/summer air (another picture of that in a bit). This day he jumped up on the couch and hunkered down— small steps

The red-naped ibis (Pseudibis papillosa) also known as the Indian black ibis or black ibis is a species of ibis found in the plains of the Indian Subcontinent. Unlike other ibises in the region it is not very dependent on water and is often found in dry fields a good distance away from water. It is usually seen in loose groups and can be told by the nearly all dark body with a white patch on the shoulder and a bare dark head with a patch of crimson red warty skin on the crown and nape. It has a loud call and is noisy when breeding. It builds its nest most often on the top of a large tree or palm.

Yep Zoraya the golden girl always either with Milo or Misty. Today she chose to sleep beside her dadda.
Nap at Work Prissy always sits on my desk or lap, if I am busy I try to get her to sit there, she usually takes a nap and sometimes Leo cat joins her, I have all the help I need, shot in North Carolina.
Even for a female, this red-naped sapsucker doesn't have as much red on the chin as the ones in the field guides. Maybe it'll grow in once she scarfs down enough ants.

Chalcothraupis ruficervix ruficervix -Prévost & Des Murs, 1842- (Golden-naped tanager / Tangara nuquirrufa)
The golden-naped tanager is found in South America from Colombia to Bolivia. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forests and heavily degraded former forest. Six subspecies are recognised.
Golden-naped tanagers have plumage similar to those of the metallic-green tanager, the swallow tanager and the blue-and-black tanager as adults of all three species are primarily blue with black facial masking, however, the golden-naped tanager is the only primarily blue tanager with a golden or reddish crown patch or nape.
