I wish I could get a lower angle but the scene happened quite suddenly and could not go down lower. However, I still am pleased with the framing as the flowers in the foreground and ocean blues in the background give context. Would love to know what you think.

A bold adult male Montagu’s Harrier allowed a close approach, giving me time to experiment with different compositions. After moving around the habitat, I found a gentle slope that helped achieve an eye-level perspective.

Bird ID: Medium Egret or Intermediate Egret (Ardea intermedia) | ಮಧ್ಯಮ ಬೆಳ್ಳಕ್ಕಿ

Moment of an Intermediate Egret during its flight from one hunting spot to another. A quiet atmosphere with still water and no other birds or actions along its path allowed for a clean, minimalistic frame.

Saw Munias bathing and wanted to single out one individual.
