[BirdPhotoIndia] Food in the Mouth series on Coppersmith Barbet

Hello fellow members

I would like to share 5 images of a Coppersmith Barbet getting hold of a Ashwattha tree (Ficus religiosa L) fruit and ultimately swallowing it. It was a fascinating experience to follow the whole process and more so when this tree is mentioned as the "The Life Giver" in some ancient scriptures.
I shall continue to post rest of all the 5 images as a reply to this original post, as I believe it is necessary to view all the images together to enjoy it completely. Hope that you shall all enjoy it as much as I did.

Wish you all a very happy and "chirping" 2012...
