Yellow-wattled Lapwing

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
After successful session of White-winged Tern,we returned to my car 
and Viru asked to Akbar for distance from we were and Akbar told"its a 
5km away from we were".<span data-offset-key="hli9-0-0"><span data-text="true">Viru turn n was looking to me for my answer,</span></span> i smiled and told 
though i have clicks,Abhay have no clicks of it and we were just 5km 
then why shud we don't go!!! if we were 50+km away then also go for 
click coz we came from 300+km and this species not sighted in our 
region.<br />
i knew the location though we go with our guide,even i 
driven the car from where we can get best click of it.i asked Abhay to 
take record shot from car and then we came out from car. carefully we 
started crawling to get close shots without disturbing it.As we were 
noticed due to my car but it gave beautiful shots.After getting this 
shot,did reverse crawl.<br />

White-winged Tern

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
As per urgent plan for Hingolgadh,i had talked with my best guide Akbarbhai for White-winged Tern sighting in Nal Sarovar coz i was unable to go there and click it since last 2yrs.Akbar told that there is a 50 % chance coz water level was just 1ft+ and 2-3 White-winged Tern were there.<br />
So on 20/06/17 started my journey towards Nal Sarovar Bird Sanctuary at 5am from Surat and meet my friends Viru and Abhay at Kamrej cross-road on NH8,they were coming from Bardoli.we reached there at 10.45am and went a location for our mission White-winged Tern started with Akbar, Ashraf & 2 boatman.<br />
we came out from car and feel was like we were put in the pre-hot oven coz AC temperature was at 16 degree C and outside temperature was 42 degree C+.walked for 1+km and again mine condition worsen.(i had skipped last 2yrs trip for this reason coz this tern came during hot climate at Nal Sarovar).Akbar was searching White-winged Tern thru his Binocular and i was thru my camera.After 30min Akbar find it and we went inside the lake thru boat.<br />
it was very hard to go inside due to low water level,they are walking in the lake and pushing our boat from behind.and luck goes down,White-winged Tern fly away coz we were passes from chick of Red-wattled Lapwing & Black-winged Stilt so they started giving alarm call.we tried for flight shot but failed.after 10+min again they came and clicked 5+ flight shots.<br />
<span data-offset-key="d4fk-0-0"><span data-text="true">it was very difficult to find This Tern(just 2-3 were there) out of 100+other terns from the boat and with handheld then focus n click.</span></span> <br />
here is one of them.<br />

Indian Pitta (Calling)

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
My best friend Viru called me 19/06/17,"doctor do something for Hingolgadh to click india Pitta for Me n Abhay" and replied "then get ready, we will go tomorrow morning".Viru told me to go 1st at Virpur temple and night stay there,next day Hingolghad,and i replied yes for plan.will share that story tomorrow or later for my lifer.<br />
My phone alarm ringed n  wake up at 5am.we all fresh n get ready to leave from our resort at Virpur at 6am coz its a 2hr journey.there was zero traffic on highway and sky was covered with gold giving mind blowing feeling.sudden dark black clouds were started covering the sky n fear came in my mind coz if it showers rains then we could not find pitta till rain stops n rain came.but clouds were still there even at hingolgadh.<br />
Paid our entry fee of 1000Rs,Car 400Rs and camera fee of 600 (200 per camera),then driven car for 1.5+km towards office and parked.Started searching here n there for "Fearless beauty of Hingolgadh"(Will post lil abt Hingolgadh).myself and Viru was searching at otherside and Abhay was searching at other side but Abhay find it.in between we clicked Viru's 2 lifer(Red-rumped Swallow & Red Collared Dove).<br />
We went towards to Abhay n Pitta again came down on ground to pick nesting materials,we were hardly 10ft away from it,clicked 2-3 shots then we all 3 just watched his behavior to pick nesting material.pick a dried small leaf branch n weigh or something then put it down,jump to find other and pick another,do same,after searching right branch,fly towards nest.we missed to take ground level shots but it was amazing to watch this thing.<br />
We went other side to find Jacobin Cuckoo n other birds and succeed.i had seen Indian Pitta (Calling) on Facebook and desired for same shot of it.so i was waiting for that kind of shot but till 12pm didn't got it.<br />
We saw the nest n from distance,tried for flying shots but we failed.so i went to talks with foresters coz m here only for calling shot.while i was talking with foresters,i see Abhay n Viru were lying to click Pitta and cudn't resist myself  to click and did same.we all get extra-ordinary shots.then it fly away and again i went towards Foresters.<br />
After 10min Pitta saw a pitta was sitting on low level of <span class="st" data-hveid="40" data-ved="0ahUKEwiJq8z5m9PUAhXCPI8KHXArDMMQ4EUIKDAA">sacred fig(</span>pipal) tree and give a call so myself walk fast to click my dream shot,waited n waited....finally here is result.<br />

Great Indian Bustard

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
Read a news that there were only 6 Great indian Bustard in Gujarat n 
have to click this Critically Endangered Species.so went kucth on 13th 
of December'16 with my frineds.<br />
it was difficult to sight but if 
you are connected with friends n guide,you will click such species.even i
 must say your luck may play more role coz no one give guaranty for 
sighting of Critically Endangered Species as number of remaining is near
 to end.it is very difficult to sight coz we had searched more than 20km
 in and 1+hour in  that area n while you are in the car,they must be 
active due to hearing of car engine sound so they hide themselves in 
small tree or bushes. <br />
credit to my friend Viren Desai for it sighting as he had sighted from far even we were in the car.<br />

by our guide.after getting fresh, we taken tea and around 5.30am we were

All set for GIB n started our journey but 
we lost in the grk coz much darkness and road is all side.we roam here n
 there for 15+min lol.even gps was not working.finally we came on road 
around at 5.50am.<br />
i was driving at a speed of 40kmph coz there are
 so many nightjar and they mostly came on road.we have to reach before 
sunrise but we were late.even we went on wrong way as missed the 
google's map voice. so we turn on the map on tomtom map (paid app) in 
iphone7 and we reached our destination around at 7.25am.<br />
our guide came there within 5minand we were on the way to GIB.after drive of 5-10min we reach at a little hill and mesmerized myself after watching sunrise and stop my cheetah to capture the beauty.and here is the frame.<br />

During extreme low light taking shots of wild life is bit difficult.As usual i was with my "Wild Wonders" in the forest of Shoolpaneshwar Wildlife Sanctuary on 20/11/16.we had clicked so many photos of birds with 3 lifers and return at one place where we had clicked our lifers in morning.<br />
We were exploring that area and sighted one Raptor but it was at the other side of road so we crossed it and approach very carefully but it was 5.30pm and sun was about to set so failed to click.while i was returning towards our car,i had seen my friend Hiren Joshi was clicking against the sun and i was amazed so also did try with my bazooka.it was even difficult to focus coz i did it with handheld,manual focus with 600mm lens.<br />
But loved the result.<br />

Pale-billed Flowerpecker with Cherry

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
i had planted a wild cherry tree 2yrs back for birds n happy to watch many birds came to feed this wild cherry.<br />
3-4 times in Every year i went my birth town Udwada,which is a holy place for Parsi.we have 15+ acre of farm at one place and have old trees of mango,Sapodilla aka chikoo and other fruits.i asked my dad to spare little area for birds but there is no space so find a little area and planted wild cherry plant 2yrs back.<br />
As i had clicked Pale-billed Flowerpecker but wish to click it with Cherry. wish complited last year but cherry color was orange but unable to get chance frame it with red cherry.<br />
i reached there on 20/5/16 in the evening and started watching from next day morning to noon and evening to sun set.finally i got my type shot on 22/5/17 at 5.45pm.<br />
Pale-billed Flowerpecker is 8cm size and much acive so fly n jump very quickly so focusing was much difficult.good point is after picking a cherry it comes out fro inside of the wild cherry tree and sit openly on a mango tree beside it.<br />

entering one car was reversing,Sagar was pressing horn continuously even
 though that car stuck with Sagar's car n made dent on front.that was 
very bad moment, how ppl say " forget it, i said sorry to you"...hooh..<br />
