The Visitors

Posted by Nishana Minhaz (Calicut / Kochi, India) on 15 February 2008 in Animal & Insect.

Two myna families that visit our home everyday. Usually they come at different timings, but today they all came at the same time n seemed to be havin a round-table conference.. They were sitting in a circle and chirpin away at each other! I ran in to get my cam, but by the time I got back the meeting had already ended n they were on the look-out for breakfast. There are a few other birds that visit too, but they treat me like Im some alien from Mars :( They fly away as soon as I get anywhere within a 10m radius! And my cam doesnt have much of a zoom either.. So Im happy i got atleast these :)
