Out on a limb
Defenceless against onslaughts
Of Canons and Nikons
Easy prey to well aimed shots
From enthusiastic Birders
A lone sunbird….

Shail's Nest 
Simply awe inspiring, Shail.
Thanks, Vishal 🙂
Exquisite image and words!
Thank you 🙂
Nice pic, loved the words…defenceless against the onslaughts of the Canons and Nikons 🙂
Thanks, Jairam 🙂
It’s ok to be defenceless thataway, thank God! And thank God too, for all those ‘Birders’ who present to us such poetic slices of nature 🙂
Yeah, I hope they make themselves so some more 😀 Usha, you should join the Indian Birds group on FB. You will be amazed at the variety and also the excellent way they are captured by some dedicated Birders.. https://www.facebook.com/groups/indianbirds/
Shail this is superb!
Thank you, Usha 🙂
Onslaughts of Canons are welcome, not onslaughts of ‘cannons’.
Lol, for a minute you had me worried that I had misspelled the word 🙂
I didn’t realise it then. Now that you mention it, my comment does sound like a sarcastic remark (written in red ink!) by an English teacher!
Haha!
Very nice picture with apt verse to match. Awesome !!
Thanks for the appreciation, Binzy 🙂
wah kya lines hai ! when ever I read I feel U can read a bird’s mind 🙂
good one
Lol, I think it is something we keep doing in our house, putting words into the mouths of animals according to their expressions. The second born and I are the ones mostly doing this 😀
Even the bird won’t mind being shot at by a ‘canon’! I love your bird pictures!
By Nikon too, Sandhya! I am a Nikonian 😀 😀
completely defenseless against your camera, Shail!! 😀
Yeah. I lay in wait for them 😉
What about us SONY people Shail? Loved the lines 🙂
Lol, I wondered why no one had asked that yet. Sony, Lumix and so on :). I’d have loved to fit them in too, but it didn’t happen 😛 By the way I am an ex-Sony-ian, in fact, still have my Sony point and shoot camera. 🙂
Welcome to Shail’s Nest, Her Mommyness 🙂
Poor creature, deprived of privacy, unaware of all this publicity….Loved the shot. 🙂
Hehe… thanks! 🙂
