Beautiful People

Posted by Hema Iyer (Bangalore, India) on 16 February 2009 in Animal & Insect and Portfolio.

I am copying the title from the 1974 Wildlife Documentary "Beautiful People"/"Animals are Beautiful People". This is one of my favourite movies.

I am not good at taking pictures of animals/birds. They are always moving around and I get scared when I go too close to them. But I love them and hence am showcasing some of the photos I took of the beautiful creatures.

They are so beautiful. I have never seen orange colour cranes. They are cranes, right? And I think you've framed the well too.

@Ajay: Thanks Ajay. These are Flamingos. Cranes and flamingos belong to different family. The white coloured ones are found in India.
