Hebbal Lake in north Bangalore is favorite spot for various colorful birds. One of the birds that can be seen here is Black-winged Stilt, a widely distributed very long-legged wader.
They have long pink legs, a long thin black bill and are blackish above and white below, with a white head and neck with a varying amount of black.
They are mostly seen marshes, shallow lakes and ponds. They pick up their food from sand or water. They mainly eat insects and crustaceans.

Superb images of these lovely birds Rajesh.
We have the Black-necked Stilt here.....so now I can see the difference between the Black-winged and Black-necked species! Thank you!

The last pic of the bird drinking is y favourite !
What a lovely series of reflections!
The reflections make their legs look even longer.
Lovely to see familiar birds in unfamiliar locations! Although these do look a little different to the Australian stilts - a different race perhaps?
They stand out on their orange legs that are in sharp contrast to their body colour.
Such beautiful birds and pictures, specially with reflection
Beautiful capture of reflection of elegant bird.
Great captures... :-)
I miss this place. There is always activity around this lake, unlike Ulsoor lake. Beautiful pictures.
