Ornithology

  1. Jungle crow - has jet black necks instead of the grey necks like house crows. Sometimes look similar to Koel in appearance but have different voices.
  2. Rose ring Parakeet - Red ring mark on the neck. It can mimic any voice like parrots. (Parrots are not native to India; only Parakeets)
  3. Sunbird (smallest bird in India) - has long curved beak and tongue for sucking nectar from the flowers like a bee and can fly fast. 
  4. Cattle Egrets (Insectivorous) - yellow beak and white in color. It walks behind the cattle, and when the movement of cattle disturbs the insects making them fly, then it catches them easily. The male egret gets a coat of yellow on feathers and face to attract a female during the breeding period. 
  5. Mynah - It has white spots on the wings.
  6. Kingfisher - White-breasted, bluish in color, and lives in moist areas or near water. 
  7. Swallow - It can fly at 170 miles per hour speeds. 
  8. Small green barbet - It flies fast then closes its wings so they drop and then flies again. 
  9. Copper Smith barbet - red-pink throat, flat pattern lines, and waves are formed during flying. 
//Termite traps - the termites will build a smooth crater-like hole in which small insects like ants get trapped, and the termite hiding below the trap will come and eat its prey.

  • The wings of fire shall awaken.
  • Skeleton joined, flesh resewn, blood reflowed, you woke up, came back to the mortal world, and lived.
