Nice picture, but your comment eludes me. "ps i died after taking this shot "
Is that a magpie superstition or something?

errr actually i was so much enthralled after seeing such a beautiful long tailed bird for the first time that my hands were shivering of excitement, my knees buckled and i ruined the picture. But after taking the shot i was like having a heart attack. Immense excitement. i bet you come across a beautiful bird in real life and you'd feel slightly bit like this

Actually I did, twice. The first time was stumbling on a Bald Eagle and the second was when I went back and found a Golden Eagle a couple of trees over.
I understand now.

wow i did it around hundred times, once with european roller, and then the list grew to gold billed magpie, green bee eater, oriental white eye, white cheeked bulbul, russet sparrow. (the maximum times i died in one days is three times)
the thrill you experience while watching them first time is awesomest of all

It's so wonderful how you manage to get such great shots of birds I've never seen (:
Very well done, as usual!

furstripe In reply to iAJK [2012-05-16 09:41:04 +0000 UTC]

well it happens... we miss so many birds while travelling. apparently the small white eye ([link] ) too seems to be like ordinary sparrow but when it comes to frame you feel like you have seen everything in the world and you want to die
well thank you very much ajk
