I know my posts have been sporadic lately.
But that does not mean I wasn't flexing my photography muscles.
Landed up at'' Basai'' which happens to be close by from where I am living
I could spot some white birds from far, grabbed my binocolors .My exictment knew no bounds to have spotted the Bar headed geese holidaying in the wetlands of Basai.
Every year thousands of Bar headed geese make an epic journey across the Himalayas cruising at an altitude of 29,500 feet to their winter refuge.Bar headed geese are one of the world's highest- flying birds.For years scientists believed that tailwinds and updrafts aided the geese on their journey.To their surprise,the birds complete the ascent under their muscle power with almost no aid from tailwinds and updrafts .
I would just wind up saying that Bar headed geese are ''super birds''scaling such heights. They are not soarers that just glide with the wind but are'' powerful flappers '' .
