Wow, they just get better. Lovely little birds to bring up the ton ( and I'm sure it won't be long before the second either.

How were the majority of shots taken ? From a vehicle, hide, feeding station etc.You seem to have had some stunning views.

Wow- what a wonderful set of additions from India . Corbett appears to have been very productive for birds, with such excellent photos. Well done on reaching 100!

We did some vehicle drives in the southern part of Corbett TR and then spent a lot of time on foot in the northern part by the Ramnaga River.  Rewarding but also frustrating as there were so many species that I didn't manage to capture. If only they'd sit still for a moment.

Well done on 100. Lovely to see some Indian birds which don’t often feature on the BY

My hearty congratulations on the ton too. A great collection.

I am no great shakes on Indian birds but your Grey Wagtail 104 does not do it for me. That yellow splash on the primaries suggests a female Minivet and if I had to pick one I would go for Rosy.

You are quite correct @Galana, Female Rosy Minivet it is. Thank you.
