Bird Watching at NISA Hyderabad (National Industrial Security Academy)

I got a wonderful and rare opportunity to do birding in NISA (National Industrial Security Academy) Campus, Hyderabad. All thanks to Ms. Anjana Sinha (IPS) and Mr. Chandrashekhar Tibrewal, who made this possible. The sightings were unimaginable and such was the luck, that I managed to spot 2 more lifers. Enjoy the pics and the video below.

  1. Great, Sumeet. That's quite a catch. Including a couple of lifers. Is the Oriental Magpie Robin female?

    1. Yeah it looks like a female, considering the paler black body of male.
