Greetings from North India! I have always been fascinated with these beautiful creatures we are surrounded with and living in an area which has seen some really harsh changes in its atmosphere (pollution in every direction) led most of the birds to leave their habitats thus leaving our surroundings silent. To have a glimpse of these visitors from different areas around the globe I had to make my way towards the outskirts into the vast green man made vegetation we are fortunately surrounded with, were the birds still make their visits and are abundant if we have a broad and a close vision. But during this period of global lockdown which has led most of us to stay in our shelters has given nature a wonderful time to revive itself and it has certainly shown us some of the remarkable positive changes in way too less time and my neighborhood is again filled with the day long chirps of these beautiful birds. some of which have been shown under: a) Coppersmith Barbet (Megalaima malabarica)
