Spotted Dove on Electrical Wire || 10% to shy-fox
It is always nice hearing beautiful cooing calls in the morning from a distance. When I was a kid, I used to imitate their pleasant coos: “coo-a-roooo”." Spotted doves are commonly light brown above, with darker centers to the feathers of the back and wings. It is also known as a barred ground dove which belongs to dove family, Columbidae, a native bird of Southeast Asia. Their color is predominantly brownish-grey with black and white barring.
I have been waiting for the right moment to capture this lovely bird. This afternoon, I saw some of them playing around the lawn. After a long wait, I spotted this bird standing right on a pole. I knew what I had to do, sneaking from the hidden place and also making sure, it did not notice me so that I could freely play with the clicks.
As I could not get close enough to shoot this bird, I managed to take some pics of this lovely bird from a distance range. Back then, people who loved birds hunted them to raise them as a pet with a handy trap. But nowadays, these birds can take free air, without worrying about being caught. Live in the wild is far happier than in the cage.
I looked up this bird standing on electrical wire when I was passing the village street and I rushed to park my bike to take some pictures from the ground and unfortunately I could not get more photos since I was noticed and it flew away.
