The spirits of the rainforest are calling...

                                                                            ...What goes around, comes around...
 
 
  - One quiet afternoon when walking along the path in RDC
  ( Rainforest Discovery Centre) I suddenly bumped into this amazing  Red-naped  Trogon  male. After getting some good photos I stayed quietly watching it ,while it was looking for an accidental snack and quietly watched and surveyed a couple of photographers ...looking for birds!

 

                                                                                       ...Yawning away...

It can be sometimes tiring for the birds trying to hide from strong gusts of winds and sudden rain falls  or blazing sun in the rain forest; this bright-colored Banded Broadbill was yawning " it's heart out" in late afternoon..

 
 
 
                                                                                  ...One grumpy squirrel...
 
  - One morning when taking a stroll in RDC I could hear a lot of noises and grumbling from the distance.  This giant squirrel seems to be always in a bad mood...just like some of us...maybe not enough sleep during the Monsoon season, or maybe it just doesn't like to be disturbed during the breakfast time! Clearly, it was giving me
                                                                    - " the bad eye" - 
                                                                    Fair enough; I decided to continue my walk. 
 
 
 
 
 
Just in half an hour I met this "pocket-sized" squirrel busy finding it's own breakfast , and, hey -  not in a bad mood at all!
 
 
 
 
  
 
 
 
 
 
Please, enjoy the pictures!
 
 
...The spirits of the rainforest are calling me again...
