Life is such a miracle…
in every form, it be human, plant, animal or the fascinating birds. Recently on a trip to india, I felt captivated by the huge flock of birds i would see every evening in the skyline. Flying in perfect unison and heading home..
It would bring an unusual sense of well being and happiness within me. Was it the unity and syncronicity? or the lightness of their spirit? All of it made me want to capture them on my canvas – in different forms and colours..

SUNNY TIMES
A cluster of Double-Barred Finches on a sunny day!
The Double-barred Finch is one of the long-tailed grass-finches and is notable for its ‘owl-faced’ features, having a white face bordered black. During the breeding season, the male may perform some displays. It hops towards the female with fluffed plumage and moves its body from side to side while singing. Maybe this is the time of romance?
