Tough Honey Breakfast


Note that in the above picture, the honey sucking bird is having green color in its body, blue and red feathers, as well few dark feathers in its tail. The picture is taken from my home town Payyampally. Having a honey breakfast like this makes the bird full. It reminds me about my childhood days where we used to have the honey of the plantain flower. But for this bird it turned to be a tough one. Let us see how it was made tough in the following pictures.


The bird is disturbed by three intruders.
1. You can see the crow behind the scene. (Out of focus).
2. You can see small flies scattered in the air around the scene. Perhaps the flies may also contribute as side dishes to the bird
3. Last but not the lease, it is me, trying to scare the bird by approaching with a camera.


In the above picture, you can see the crow watching the bird from behind the scene, the plantain and the bird is out of focus, as I focused the crow behind the scene. I love the 12x zoom of Canon Powershot S2 IS as well as the 1.5x teleconvertor (TC-DC58B)
