brown headed barbet drinking water ...


They are feasting on the small green jamun berries in the garden and in the neighborhood gardens too but this one must have been really thirsty to come down to have a sip of water even when i was standing at some distance...otherwise i have noticed , they are very shy...The triangular rock in the rack garden set up looks like a resting place for all birds ....


But this barbet descended down to the bird bath quickly , had his fill , looked at me ....see how he looks at me...


And retreated quickly .... to the same bunch of jamuns hanging there....
