[BirdPhotoIndia] Plumbeous Water Redstart-M

Hello,
        It was our last day in Uttarakhand and we hoped to see many 'lifers' but again after mid morning, the weather started to show a grumpy face! After midday, though the rain stopped, the sky still looked  very ominous. We were crossing a dense,dark forest patch stretching over  several kilometres before Mukku Math. This was an interesting area where we were lucky to hear Grey-bellied Tesia calling continuously for nearly 45 minutes but at the same time unlucky for not having a sighting of it.
Here, just at the turn of a bend, near a stream, I spotted a Plumbeous Water Redstart couple peacefully spending their time. They were quite close but still were not afraid of me.I took a few shots but beyond photography, I just loved to see their activities, specially the female fanning its beautiful tail.
Thanks,
Maitreyee
