Continuing with my series of regular backyard birds, the first is the picture of a kingfisher perched on the top of my terrace.
The Spotted Doves spend a lot of time amid my plants. Here's one foraging amid my small patch of ginger while the other looks on. They are usually seen in pairs.

The Common Indian Myna was busy pecking at some of the ripening berries on this tree while a pair of White-breasted water hens were taking a leisurely walk.
And this purple sunbird was feeding amid the lilies growing wild near the roadside.

Great photos. In your backyard? I would love to be there!
Great photos and a very nice series of birds in your backyard.
The birds must see your backyard as a wonderful oasis!
I just love the coloring on the doves. They are so unlike the mourning doves I see in my own backyard.
Great captures, especially the kingfisher. They are kind of shy birds around here. The Doves are pretty, love the spots. Thanks for sharing, have a great day!
A fantastic variety of birds! The dove is beautiful!
An interesting post and great photos Kanak. Lovely to see more of your garden birds. I can't imagine having a Kingfisher in my garden, that would be just so special!
We have Collared Doves here and they visit my garden each day. As with yours, they are always in pairs.
The pretty Purple Sunbird looks lovely among the lilies. How wonderful to have lilies growing wild! We only see them in gardens here.
I'm not familiar with the purple sunbird; how interesting.
The spotted doves are very pretty! All your photos are great! Many birds visit my garden too, but I am never able to take their pictures:(
Lovely captures. The Spotted Dove is beautiful.
I am constantly amazed at the variety of birds in the world and their varied and wonderful names! Most of these I have never even heard of before! Thanks for showing them to us!
wow, so many gorgeous birds right on your doorstep. You are lucky.
