For The Birds !

This hawk has been flying around my home for quite an while already. Every now and then I saw it fly by.. but never while sitting down.

Today it sat on a tree which is about 100 meters from my home and I was able to snap the photo.

Focal length 35m equiv 3123mm. Jumping autofocus was not helping too much :)

Easter chicks at Kamala market, Phuket

Does anyone know how these chicks are painted? Food coloring to the water and submerging the birds there?

I am headed down to northern Songkhla this coming week, so hope to add new contributions .... I am sort of running short of material ....sad.png

On broken wings

Open bill stork by the bridge over the klong going into Jatajak park.

Seems to be surviving there OK, must be able to get a feed of fish.

Your image shows a (Oriental) Bay Owl. Look on the link below for data.

http://www.birdlife.org/datazone/speciesfactsheet.php?id=2160

Philip Round in his guide to the Birds of Thailand (co-authored with Boonsong
Lekagul) writes following on the behaviour of this species: "Often perches
one foot above the other on vertical or steeply sloping branches and vines in
forest understorey." Your bird shows this behaviour.
