Rufous Treepie.

It's always interesting to observe birds and their characteristics. Today, I will explore a bit about treepie. A few months back, I had seen a treepie flying to and forth around the home's backyard but was not able to capture it. This time looks like it has found the partner. Luckily, the capture of these two was possible.
Treepie here hops in around the trees looking for food and feeding on insects, fruits, and worms. The bird belongs to the crow family. Their sound is pretty uncommon and those calls made me out of the home to go for the capture.

It's quite fascinating to see how the birds appear identical. Every similar birds in the flock look the same to us in most cases. It's interesting that they do the identification the same way on each other as we do on human beings with some visual cues and voice recognition

It came and sit for a while. I believe it's the same one that was shy, now felt the bird was flexing the partner to the camera. They didn't even buzz upon seeing my lens. However, the crows here are so spread out but dodge like a bullet when I point out the camera towards them. It's a breeding season now and indeed the partner was essential. Looked like an interesting discussion to nest and build the family.

They are quite observant. Look at them, just waiting to go for the hunt in the above picture. It's a common bird but not much as mynah and crow here. It's interesting to observe them move their tail and take a short flight around the backyard.

It's good to be back. I couldn't make it to the EBC. Monsoon, a recent plane crash in the Himalayas. It was bad. And, my life chores provided the excuses to have all this season. Apologize.
