Spring-Summer - 336 (Amandava amandava)

Spring-Summer - 336

This well decorated
beauty is giving
the impression
of being
double-billed ...

A less than 4 inches
product ... Nature
seems to have finished
in leisure time ...

Resident breeder
in our area ...
... but
un-justifiable human
lust for keeping
them as a cage bird
led to their
introduction to many
other regions of the
world ...

Watch him and listen
to his lovely song
in a video-clip ...
recorded close to a
Railway Station ...
... siren of a passing
locomotive and train
heard in the background ...

A caged bird is
a sad bird, Alok.
This bird looks
as a bird should
look. A fine shot
and commentary.
