Flamingos in Hyderabad.. series

Flamingos / రాజహంస at Ameenpur Lake, Hyderabad.

Greater flamingos can be measured as tall as 60 Inches, but weighing as light as 8-10 pounds - a contrary combination for an animal that it so tall..

They stand on the thick mud to find and feed on the food - organisms including larvae, plankton, small fish and whatever else they can find in those shallow bodies of water, stomping their feet in the mud to help stir up the accessible food in the area without having to venture into deeper waters..

I have got nothing to do with the Shitty affair (under me)

Common Kingfisher / నీళ్ళబుచ్చిగాడు / లకుముకి పిట్ట / చల్లకవ్వపు పిట్ట
As the name denotes, expert in fishing, live predominantly near the water-bodies / shallow water.. 

Before eating its prey, the bird holds it by its tail and whack it to death against the perch, as the live fish may extend its fins in the bird's throat, choking it, sometimes to death. 

Common Kingfishers are highly territorial because they are to eat about 60% of their body weight a day. They fiercely defend their territories, even from their mates and offspring. As a part of it, they perform a ritual display perched some distance from each other. This involves displaying feathers and beaks, accompanied by whistling. Usually the dispute is resolved without actual combat. But in rare instances, combatants will lock beaks and attempt to drown each other.
