(delhibirdpix) The Commoners - # 118 - Chestnut-Shouldered Petronia (Petronia xanthocollis) 2010-133

With temperatures getting to be 44c. even the birds are feeling the
heat - this one perched itself on a hand pump on the road side to
drink water as also use the shade provided by the pump-head.

Taken at Hasanpur Wetlands, 40 kms east of Delhi, India on 16th May,
2010

Cheers.
