an untimely visit to the migratory birds of Bangladesh winter

Untimley since it's almost time that most of the birdies have returned to their abodes greeting Goodbye tp Bangladeshi weather.

Reaching JU was a happiness. This is a place that can give you peace if you're a dweller in those concrete-jungles of Dhaka. First thing that caught my eyes was this bunch of cranes playing around near the lake next to JU transport. They kept showing off their flying beauties.

Next came this common small egret. It's a native bird and may be that's why it and its folks kept walking around us concentrating o their hunting while displaying their visually soothing flights.
fearless
The small egret was playing around looking for food. It posed in several postures for me. It was the easiest to shoot. I loved its eyes and flight.
random flights
These cranes were sitting and circling around some trees by the lake. Watching them flying in circles, bunches. They are huge in size and gorgeous in clolour and flights. No idea from where they cme in. It was great to watch and enjoy their flights in flocks.
more flights and plays
These ducks were in the most abundance. They were swimming lazily, flying in flocks, diving for food...chattering and fighting with folks some times. People seemed to be very aware compared to past. I saw none disturbing these birdies to watch them fly.
more and more flights

"Take me there............".........a lovely daughter of daddy. I took this photo without their permission. Kind of paparazzi stuff. Hope they wouldn't be bothered much as none of their faces is clear here. However, I owe them  thanks of course! A couple of their snaps were some of my bests on that day.
