[BirdPhotoIndia] Watercock female 1

Hello,

A female Watercock, Rajarhat, east Kolkata, India, 14.8.2011
This appeared more secretive than the male or maybe because of the drab colour, more difficult to spot in the grass/reed stretches.

[BirdPhotoIndia] Common Raven

Shimmering, glimmering, dazzling; the luster on this Common Raven (Corvus corax tibetanus) was absolutely blinding when seen through the viewfinder in the harsh afternoon sun.
This large bird, about the size of a Black Kite had the countenance of a bored kid at a grownups party; fidgeting, walking around and dozing very unlike Corvus who usually seem to have an 'agenda'.

All images loose detail when reduced to web size but a very painful reminder in this image as all iridescence represented on a black bird gets fitted into the palette of a jpeg.
