If you are sitting in the sun or roaming outside and hear a small tak-tak-tak sound from the bushes or small branches on a nearby tree,and the sound is not loud or bold enough for a big woodpecker,then you are likely to see a small bird known as Speckled Piculet in the woody bush or the branches of the tree. The bird is about 10 cms and has an olive green back.Though the male and female look alike but the male has an orangish colour on the fore crown as is visible in this picture.It can be seen in the Himalayan foothills upto an altitude of about 2500 meters.
If you have clicked these pics then believe me you are superb in photography. Keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteA very unfortunate incident which still looks so bad and painful. Himachal is full of tourist places but you need to be active and alert at the same point.
