The minivets are passerine birds and are found in Asia. They are very beautiful as the male has bright Red and Black color and the female has yellow with grey and black color combination. They are mostly found on top of trees. Because of their bright color, it is very easy to find them. In winter they visit Margalla Hills, Islamabad.

They are mostly found deep into Margalla hills. To see this bird I traveled for one hour drive and found them in the Haripur area of Margalla hills. But when the weather is cold they can even be found in the foothill area of the Margalla hills.

These birds are very shy and mostly maintain distance from humans. So it is very difficult to photograph them. They also travel on top of the tree so usually, my all photographs are taken from beneath. But because of their unique color, I always try to photograph them. Hope someday we will have some close encounter and I will get some amazing shot of this beauty.
