I get to see variety of birds around my parents house in Udupi. I have captured few of them in my camera and here they are.
One such beautiful bird belongs to woodpecker family and is known as Black-rumped Flameback (Lesser Golden-backed Woodpecker or Lesser Goldenback).
They have black throat and black rump with distinctive golden yellow wing coverts. The underparts are white with dark chevron markings.The head is whitish with a black nape and throat, and there is a grayish eye patch. The adult male has a red crown and crest.
It is one of the few woodpeckers that are seen in urban areas. It is fun to see them moving on the tree branches and trying to make a hole in the tree.

Very nice pictures of the colorful bird.

ReplyDeleteBelas fotos. O pássaro é tão pequeno, colorido, mas mesmo assim tão integrado ao meio-ambiente... isso faz pensar que vale a pena preservar o que resta da natureza.
