Warblers are always difficult to identify and even more difficult to click decent images, since they are always on the run. Was lucky enough to witness and photograph this Sulphur-bellied warbler who was bathing at the small puddle.
About Photographer
Nature and wildlife enthusiast. Armature photographer. Special interest in birds and flora.
Jumping spider. They are the most common species but they are hard to chase. While I was finding the subject to click, I spotted this little spider posing for the camera in my garden. For me, clicking jumping spider in his habitat with so much colors around has been an enthralling one.
Title: Crab-plover with crab The crab-plover or crab plover is a bird related to the waders, but sufficiently distinctive to merit its own family Dromadidae. This slender shorebird with an over-sized bill subsists on a diet dominated by crabs. I found this moment on the bank of Mandvi beach during my Great Rann of Kutch, Gujarat photographic tour. I was lucky to get this nice habitat shot.

I kept on visiting nearby lake from my place to get this image. I knew the favorite spot of the Green Bee Eater as they normally land to their perch after a kill. The challenge was that it gets a dragonfly exactly before the sunset so that I could click it with beautiful bokeh. So after numerous visits, I was able to frame what I desired.

I photographed this image on February 2022 from Purbasthali. In my third day boat safari when I took rest on boat suddenly I heard z-z-z-z-z sound nearly and I found a Black drongo caught a huge dragonfly and tried to kill that. That Drongo took much time to successfully killed that dragonfly. Here is a moment of last time when the full body of that Dragonfly was inside the Drongo's beak and some parts were sticking out of the Drongo's beak.
About Photographer
I'm Tanmoy Das Karmakar from Kolkata, West Bengal. I've started my wildlife Photography from 2018. Later on I found my passion and interest in birds and wildlife photography, especially action moments. From the beginning I participated in many photography contests and exhibitions and regularly followed others photographers' work in Facebook and Instagram. Then I made a wildlife photography channel and contacted some of my photographer friends and went to various national parks, bird sanctuaries, and photography exhibitions with them. I visited many national parks and bird sanctuaries for photography. Gradually I became an expert in birds and wildlife photography and till now I'm learning photography from Google as well as many reputed photographers. I believe there is no end to learning. Till now I'm trying to improve my photography skills to better and continue pushing boundaries in the world of photography. I'm thankful to my parents for supporting me a lot in my wildlife journey.
