The orange bellied leaf bird, elusive and shy beyond compare. Even with a myriad of colors this ones' difficult to spot as it frequents trees that camouflage it very well. I was lucky to capture this when staying at Sterling Corbett in Uttarakhand, all I had to do, patiently wait looking out my window :)










Beautiful captures - I like the painterly quality of #1-2!
oh, how i wish i got all my bird shots with that soft dreamy tone :) think the foliage in the foreground helped get it that way though.
