FOOD FOR PHOTOGRAPH...

Saturday, January 28, 2006

These crimson colored flowers attract many birds and I found a few of them through my viewfinder. The combination of the birds and the flower is very photogenic and makes an attractive picture. This flowering plant - called Flame of the Forest is common in the forests of my region and if you wait near a tree in the flowering season during mornings or evenings, you are guaranteed to be rewarded with some avian guests posing you in no hurry. The image below is of a Yellow Throated Sparrow, also called Chestnut Shouldered Petronia. You can see a slightly larger image at my picture gallery in the album 'Birds and Animals'.
