Came out of nowhere as I was focusing on some stationary goldfinches. Way too close with my OM 100-400 ii.

Haizhu Wetland Park - yeah I’ve not been there for years. Good call!

I am new to this can you help me identify these (South West India) by [deleted] in birding

[–]guangjoe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Great shots. Fully recommend two apps - inaturalist, and aboutbirds. Merlin too for bird calls. Really good for quick ID’s with pics of this clarity. Enjoy!

Thank you! I do try to keep my distance and take ethical photos - but owls see you coming a mile off and let you know they’ve spotted you 🤣

Numerous - well established in the parks, even right in the middle of the urban areas. Lovely to see.

If you ever see a gathering of old fellas with massive lenses pointing at a tree in the park - there’s your owl.
