A family of Scaly-breasted Munia took shelter at my front yard during a drizzling afternoon. They were actually a foot apart from me; but its seemed to be a hundred feet away as they never noticed me behind the tinted window glass.
The parents were busy at flying back and forth for the feeding routine, and
another unlucky worm that had made a fatal mistake which only others could learn from.
I went out for some clearer shots. This juvenile hesitated initially, it then struggled, fell onto the floor and finally managed to fly away.
Only the lesson wouldn't fly.
Kife cycle, one day you are a worm, another day, you become eaten.
ReplyDeletetypo error,
ReplyDeleteI mean Life cycle.
you are a cameraworm and perhaps, a bookworm too. ;)
ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful pictures of the feeding routine. I'm glad the juvenile managed to fly safely away.
ReplyDeleteWonderful shots!!! Clear and beautiful. Wonder how did that baby reached there in the first place. Was there a nest?
ReplyDeleteAnother excellent set of photos. Good observations too!
ReplyDeleteEven the birds love to get close to you Rainfield..and readily pose for your camera!
ReplyDeleteAwesome shots from the inside and outside, Rainfield.
ReplyDeleteThey were having a date lunch and you are disturbing them rainfield :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing the busy Scaly-breasted Munia family. They are very attractive.
ReplyDeleteNice pictures.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty bird! You must be a huge monster to scare that baby into "dropping dead!"
ReplyDeleteHaha.. you have peeped into their private life.
ReplyDeleteAgain! Why birds love to hang out close to you? hahaha you are one lucky duck. So will this be another bird series that I will look forward to? I am not really complaining. I am so excited actually.
ReplyDeleteSo the worm was the lesson that wouldn't fly? (Lol)..wow. These are excellent- lucky you and what nice tropical looking images!
ReplyDeleteThey can come and pick how many caterpillars they want in our garden. Awesome shots.
ReplyDeleteoh, so cute and so sweet.
ReplyDeleteKasih ibu!
ReplyDeleteAm I a worm? Yike!!!!
ReplyDeleteBut it was so nice that they dropped by though I have have no idea where they stayed.
By the way, I rather be a bird than a worm, if there is a choice.
How do birds get these crazy names. They are pretty birds, great shots, Rainfield.
ReplyDeleteYou took great pictures of these birds.
