Minivets wave

A beautiful morning is when the taman is filled with bird whistles, coos, even shrieks.  To add to this, this beautiful morning saw a bird wave of a few Ashy Minivets and on re-examining shots I took was thrilled that I managed to get both the male and female.

A male up-close

Male

Was lucky to get the female from better angles, despite a teeny block of a branch across the bird ( a no-no for birder-photographers though!)

Female

It's always a bonus when one captured an image of a bird with a catch, and this female had caught a larvae.

The very same female with a 'sexy' pose, I must add.
