Trip Guides
The photo essays — a field log from forest and city, collections from the coast, the grasslands, the Western Ghats and beyond. Not systematic checklists, but the story behind a morning, a species, or a place.
Collection 01
Field
Log
Ten sightings from forest and city — woodpeckers, flycatchers, a sunbird and an eagle-owl over the rooftops, each with its habitat and the story of the frame.
Collection 02
Coastal
Birds
Eighteen frames from the shore — terns, gulls, flamingos, waders and sea eagles, sorted by the band of coast each one works.
Collection 03
Vultures
Griffons, Egyptian and cinereous vultures — and a note on the collapse that took more than 97% of India's vultures in a decade.
Collection 04
Lesser
Florican
One morning at Rollapadu with a Critically Endangered bustard — fewer than 200 are thought to remain anywhere.
Collection 05
Great Indian
Bustard
One bird at Rollapadu in 2017, in the sanctuary declared for the species — where it has not been recorded for years.
Collection 06
Woodpeckers
Flamebacks, green woodpeckers and a white-naped — plus the family checklist behind them, seventeen species deep.
