So this happened. My @IndiAves tribe did not disappoint. Find here some of the most amazing stories shared by some of the finest people I have come to know, appreciate, and love. From spark birds to thieving birds, people shared their stories with me. And they are amazing to say the least. Read for pleasure.

The Crested Serpent-eagle, as its name suggests, is primarily a snake-hunter. It seems to particularly favor tree snakes. But its diet isn't limited to serpents. It will also take lizards, frogs, toads, mammals, eels, small birds, termites and large earthworms. #IndiAves

A gorgeous bird of the Lower Himalayas. The Rufous Bellied Niltava. It's largely insectivorous, with a lovely hunting technique. Saw it sit on this perch, and then drop down, almost like a bomber when it saw its prey. Zero use of wings there. #IndiAves @IndiAves #BirdsSeenIn2025

Great Hornbill (Buceros bicornis) Large, awkward, loud and somewhat out-worldly... and then they demonstrate this delicate act of the male feeding the female, part of their courtship rituals. #IndiAves #TwitterNatureCommunity 📷Nov 2025, Valparai, TamilNadu

Orange-headed Thrush (Geokichla citrina) in my garden last April. In morning I saw this bird in a park, and couldn't get a good image, but found it in my garden in the afternoon. #TributeToSalimAli #IndiAves #ThePhotoHour #BBCWildlifePOTD #natgeoindia
