Hi Folks,
It is spring and no better time to do a photo-feature on birds visiting a flowering Silk Cotton tree for the website. I suspect a feature like that would be both attractive and will have some scientific value.

I already have images of the following species visiting the Bombax ceiba:
Chestnut-tailed Starling
Rosy Starling
Asian Pied Starling
Jungle Myna
Common Myna
Black-hooded Oriole
Eurasian Golden Oriole
Rufous Treepie
House Crow
Black-rumped Flameback
Fulvous-breasted Woodpecker
Common Tailorbird
Baya Weaver
Red-whiskered Bulbul
Red-vented Bulbul
Oriental Magpie Robin
Blue-throated Barbet
In case you have images of other species that you would like to share, please send them in to me with place and date or month information. In case of receipt of multiple images of the same species, I will exercise editorial judgement to choose :-).

Here is a recent image appropriate for the subject. CKBS, Kolkata last week.

Cheers!
Sumit
