| Some kind of nests on the Mexican Oleander tree |
These pictures were taken at the Wagah border, a place in the state of Punjab bordering Pakistan. We had gone to see the lowering of the flags ceremony, a daily military practice that the security forces of India and Pakistan have jointly followed since 1959. While we were there I went around taking pictures of the flowers and the wildlife but I only managed these two bird shots.:( A parrot and a dove (I think).

Nice shots and I would love to know what kind of nests those are!
An interesting series of photos.
Many thanks for sharing your beautiful wildlife.
Wonderful shots, and I especially love your header. He has just that tiny bit of red on his rump.
Cool birds and the nest are neat. Thanks for sharing your world birds.

Great show!
I pray for continued peace at that border!
Our oldest grandson and his wife were in India for several months and they told us about the border flag ceremony, quite impressive they said.
Lovely birds!
Great photos Ruby, of both the birds and the area. It looks like a very popular ceremony with all those onlookers!
