Friends,

Birds are the all-time favorite of most of us.

They are free flyers and can fly without any boundaries.

From ancient ages, birds have been used by the human race in different capacities.

Pigeons have been used for sending messages as they can consistently fly for a longer period.

Eagles being used to find out the hidden pray at distant places. Vultures being used for clearing the dead bodies.

Still, now you can see in many streets of India Parrots are being used to tell the future and fate of the human.

Kings and rich people have a collection of rare species of birds in their captivities.

In many countries keeping Cockatoos gives a status symbol.

In some countries, people keep Pigeons in cages and use them for show business.

In Circuses, we have seen many plays about birds, specially Cockatoos, Pigeons, and Parrots. They are driving cycles, jumping through rings, imitating the different voices, and so on so forth.

Though when we thought of birds, we imagine flying like them, but there are many species of birds who are unable to fly. Emu, Ostrich, Penguin, Weka, Kiwi, Cassowary, Steamer duck, and others are the birds who cannot fly.

They save themselves from enemies in different ways.

In morning walk and evening stroll I can see many birds in my locality, especially from the terrace.
Flying Herons, Crows, Parrots, Starling, Old world Sparrows, Cuckoos, Owls, Pigeons, and many birds I do not know the names.

I feel that birds are beautiful when they are not in cages, they are free.

I am enclosing some of the pictures of birds taken from my Mobile Phone from my terrace and while traveling to the different parts of India.
