Black-rumped Flame-back Wood-pecker, Karandana, Avissawella, Sri Lanka.



A very shy bird. It was high up on a coconut tree. I used my Nikon 70-300 zoom VR on my Nikon D90. The shots were taken hand-held with VR on.

'House Sparrow' - Passer domesticus indicus, Karandana, Avissawella, Sri Lanka.

These birds were numerous a few decades ago in the vicinity of houses in Sri Lanka. They disappeared in large numbers a few years back. Now they are makiing a come-back.
