[BirdPhotoIndia] Trapped(?) Shearwater

Finally a pic of an (un)fortunate Persian Shearwater (Puffinus persicus) showing a fishermen's net tangled in its body. As seen in the pic it's feeding freely; it later flew off with the rest of the flock.

Couldn't help remembering the Film divisions cartoon film for children "ek aur anek" which used to come on Doordarshan long ago.

Shot on a pelagic, off the coast of Kannur, Kerala. April, 2011

Cheers,
