My visit to Sundarbans was primarily reserved for BWKF besides the Royal Bengal Tiger. While both are rarities my luck turned the other way for RBT, but fortunately favoured the BWKF which I was looking for. And thus it became my 10th jewel of my portfolio, out of 12 seen in Indian subcontinent that makes 2 short. Large sized KF and has an extra-large orange red bill similar to the stork bill kingfisher, but lacks its brown cap. The entire head and underparts are brownish- orange. The wings are completely brownish right up to the tail with a prominent turquoise blue rump. Size is same as Stork bill which is 35cms.

Resident of East India, found along coast, mangrove swamps, tidal rivers and creeks.

Bird ID: Brown winged Kingfisher

Acrylics and watersoluble pencil on masonite. Detail of the first version.

A man painting Buddha's third eye on the stupa which is a mound-like structure containing Buddhist relics at Swayambhunath in the Kathmandu Valley, west of Kathmandu city in Nepal.

It is complete but not yet grouted. I removed and replaced the orange tiles from the top of the face as lots of people said it looked like someone wearing a head dress; which is not what this is supposed to be about.

Ultimamente sono molto presa dalla fine dei miei studi (che nonostante tutto paiono infiniti!). Le grandi letture mi aiutano a sopportare questi ultimi sforzi. E così ogni giorno mi accorgo di cambiare idea su ciò che mi circonda... Vedo cose che prima mi erano invisibili, ho acquisito una maggiore sensibilità a tutto. Inizio ad immaginare un possibile futuro pieno di pensiero.

The Cape Buffalo is traditionally known as the meanest beast in the bush, prone to launch a killing charge at the drop of a hat. Although this is the natural reaction of almost any buffalo that is being shot at, many non-provoked, solitary males like the ones in this image also do it. They are taking a mud bath, but it did not make them any gentler. The most common species, a very large black-pelted grassland dweller, can weigh up to 1,750 pounds.

 

What I found ironic on this particular buffalo are the two small green leaves on his forehead, which look like green "Tilaka" or the "Third Eye" that you would commonly seen on Indians after a religious ceremony. It is believed to cool the person down or bring them peace.

 

In South Africa, we were out for a night drive where we followed a Pride of Lions tracking a herd of Cape Buffalos. One of the large lions jumped on the back of a male buffalo and tried to bite through his spinal cord. The buffalo headed at full speed toward a tree with low hanging branches and knocked him off.

 

Understandably angry, he turned around and charged our 4x4 at full speed. The Guide slammed the gearshift into reverse and the gas pedal to the floor. We went flying backwards over rough ground. The buffalo having made his point backed off on his charge.

 

It was one of the most exciting experiences on the trip, but not one that I would want to repeat.

 

Older males are generally forced out of the group. They tend to be solitary or join bachelor herds. You might hear guides refer to them as "old dagga boys". The word "dagga" is Zulu and means mud - it refers to the fact that they like wallowing in mud

 

Buffalo are the favorite prey of Lions, and where there are Buffalo, the Lion Prides are sure to not be far behind. There is a fairly permanent herd of around a thousand Buffalo that live on the Duba Plains in the Okavango and there are a couple of prides of Lion that regularly hunt them.
