(delhibirdpix) Painted Sandgrouse -Asola- 29-3-14

I first sighted this beautiful but very secretive & shy bird in Bhatti Mines in 2010 . If I am not wrong Col Sangwan & Soma were with me when the sitting pair flew right in front of us .Later on 16.june 2011 ,later on 4 individuals at Asola on 26 October with Sajeev & KB . They never gave any chance to photograph them. Sajeev kept chasing them and finally got a pic of both male and female. We were also after them for a long time and finally got some record shots of this solitary male on Saturday .

Happy Birding

(delhibirdpix) Andaman Scops-owl ( Mt. Harriet NP, Andaman Islands)

Species : Andaman Scops-owl (Otus balli)

Place : Mt. Harriet NP, South Andaman, Andaman Islands, India

Date : 29 March 2014

It might be difficult to get clear views of these Owls though they respond well on playback. This is the first time I had seen them reasonably close, two of them perched face to face, for about 5 minutes. Thanks to Danish and Eldhose for this wonderful sighting.
