This Chennai visitor does not grant birders an easy audience

This Chennai visitor does not grant birders an easy audience

The Terek Sandpiper’s forehead is a cliff dressed in feathers. The bird would still be headbutted out of a “Mr. Steep Forehead” contest. The Pied Avocet, also a Chennai migrant, is enough to dash its hopes. Placed next to the Avocet’s forehead, Mount Thor with its daunting cliff is just a hopelessly flat-lined ECG lead. The Terek Sandpiper’s more attention-grabbing feature is its upcurved bill.…

A heritage homestead overlooking a 1,000 yr. old temple and its tank, what if your day started with a view like this? You step out and you come across houses with bamboo fences, thatched roofs and multi-coloured walls. A stroll around the village reveals vast stretches of paddy fields with farmers tilling the land, a small shrine of the guardian deity of the village (also painted with multiple colours) and families tending to their cattle. The air, the view, the sounds, they all help you slow down and relax. Mangala Heritage, the homestead, is located in the coastal district of Nagapattinam (which is also home to the much revered Velankanni Church). You can easily spend 2-3 nights exploring the village and its surroundings. A host of experiences are up for grabs, starting with a visit to a family of temple ratha (chariot) makers who will happily showcase their work. There are very few places in Tamil Nadu that offer this interaction. Next, are the superb 400 yr. old murals on the ceiling of an ancient temple complex, which tell the story of a monkey king and how he installed the temple deity. Also interesting to learn are the efforts that went into restoring the murals. A nearby temple where elderly couples come to renew their marriage vows is bound to bring a smile on your face as you watch the couples blush while at the same time enjoy all the attention.

An evening spent watching a Silambattam performance, a martial form, and Kumi-kali by the youth of the village will be most memorable. The food is simple and tasty. The locals warm and cheerful. The Danish Fort at Tranquebar, the Nagore Dargah, the Velankanni Church and the Point Calimere black buck sanctuary can all be visited.

The lonely watchtower : A group of Painted Storks are returning home as the lights are fading. A lonely watchtower who stood there for decades keeping a vigilant watch on the resident birds. Painted storks are highly gregarious and feed in groups in shallow wetlands, crop fields, and irrigation canals. Their distinctive pink flight feathers of the adults give them their name. These beautifully colored birds have a heavy yellow beak with a down-curved tip. ________________________________________ #bird #birds #birdsphotography #birdsofinstagram #birdwatching #birding #birds_nature #birdsofindia #birdsofparadise #birdsplanet #birdsoftheworld #best_birds_shots #best_birds_photography #birdphotographyindia #BirdPixures #bird_photography_official #indianwildlifeofficial #wildlife #wildlifephotographer #wildlifephotography #watchtower #paintedstork #wildlifeindia #wildlifeofindia #stork #lighthouse #shotoncanon #yourshotphotographer #canonasia #capturedoncanon (at Point Calimere) https://www.instagram.com/p/CTWXAv8JWbi/?utm_medium=tumblr
