Lazy Sunday Photo- Sunny Spring Day
I was interested in taking this picture because of the blue bird sitting in the right hand corner of the bench. Once again I am reminded of the fact that the zoom of my cameras is pretty poor. And I have yet to manage to buy a good zoom lens.
This picture was also taken at the Jamia Millia Islamia University campus.

Nice photo. Zoom is Ok.

Looks like a Kingfisher. How very obliging of him to pose on that bright orange-red bench, overlooking some orange-red marigolds!
oh, thatz a White Breasted Kingfisher.(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White-breasted_Kingfisher) I love the blue on the orange bench.
Yes I think its a kingfisher too :) Why is it not sitting on that seat??!
nice colors and lighting.
yup ... thats the kingfisher and its been my fav bird for a photo subject :)
With so many ornithologists around, dare I open my trap? There is someone in blue at 11' O Clock...thats a human being.
Hobo, thanks.
Sunita that is true! Otherwise a few days back some black bees were giving me a lot of trouble and posing at all.
Thanks for the link Ahkila.
Final_Transit I will ask the bird the next time I meet.
Thanks Sandeep.
You are absolutely right Paradox, there is a woman in blue in the top left corner of the shot.
He was probably on the look out for some butterflies visiting the marigolds. It knocked me for a loop the first time I saw it . I always thought that Kingfishers live on a fish diet ... until I saw one hunting butterflies in my garden. (take a look : http://the-urban-gardener.blogspot.com/2008/12/tis-season-for-unexpected-gifts.html )
Maybe he was on a low-protein diet!
Sunita thanks for the link, you have put in such lovely pictures!
