https://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/1539106003 Take a look...it will make you laugh
Ah! Very pretty...and no competition...have you seen the one where one butterfly is trying to break up the mating pair...I posted the threesome today :)
saddening! Wild life has to deal with so much!
No. :( But it is the same story even in the Sunderbans where they are killing and eating sparrows and song birds such as the Oriole. Human population pressure....
play of light! At a different angle,the heads look green.
Yes, I have seen them caged in Jama Masjid area, Delhi; likely meant for the table. :( Green heads. the ones in your snap seem to have blue heads.
That's not how you want to see them!
Thanks Sukanya. BTW are there Mallards in India?
