Countryside

Peafowls were enjoy rains. A few individual birds were resting atop the concrete houses in the villages, visible from the road. These two were foraging in the green paddy field.

15 August 09, overcast sky, light drizzle. On electric line, I saw large gathering of Rosy & Pied Starlings, Bank & Common Mynas, a few House Crows and one European Roller.
