Silhouetted Seagull
Sunrise and sunset are probably the favorite times of the day for any photographer. And there are moments as these when taking a photograph is just a you-get-it-or-you-lose-it affair. Especially when the subject of your photo is a bird, and all the more when you try to silhouette the bird while it flew at an angle just beside the setting sun.

Guira Cuckoo
I saw the Cuckoo sitting upright behind the fences, and that’s when I got the idea of framing the cuckoo’s eyes. Seconds later, I realized that was going to be tough. As if in a series of involuntary twitches, the birdie was moving its head in quick spurts. It took a while but I could suddenly notice a pattern to the involuntary twitches – right, slanted left, straight, slanted right. Now, it was just a question of timing the shutter when the birdie’s face turned straight and between the hexagons of the fence.
