Birds teach me photography

In my childhood days, my knowledge of birds was very scant. I knew the bird which made the sound “caw, caw” was the crow, and the bird which made “coo, coo” was the skylark. Rest all birds which I saw up the tree I simply referred them as sparrows — may be a big sparrow or small sparrow. Be it a sunbird or a bulbul or a flowerpecker or a hoopoe everything was just a sparrow for me. Some fifteen years back I got myself a digital camera. As an absolute noob, my initial months in photography were mostly confined to landscapes and interiors. Then slowly the repertoire increased to include animals, action photography, and portraits and slowly it veered toward bird photography. Once I started seeing those bird photographs from my camera on the computer screen, my enthusiasm for birds and birding started building up. From those sparrow days, I came a long way by becoming conversant with their names, distinguishing a male from a female, and so on. <a href="https://medium.com/weeds-wildflowers/birds-teach-me-photography-7f2aa98330ce">Visit Now</a>
