Tiger Shrike and White-throated Kingfisher eat Cricket (Gryllus sps)

| Nice breakfast |
A kingfisher has made my backyard its home, and it’s quite the character! It often starts calling around 7 AM, and I love watching it perch on the metal frame just outside my kitchen as it keeps an eye out for insects. However, it’s usually still a bit too dark for me to take a good picture at that hour, and the little bird gets startled by even the tiniest movement I make.
To make photography a bit easier, I use crickets as bait. I toss them on the grass and wait.
