India! Another Coopersmith Barbet visit

Coopersmith Barbet: Keoladeo National Park, Bharatpur, Rajasthan, India, March 2023 — After our first Coopersmith, we, of course, saw several more in Keoladeo National Park….and most of the time you could hear them calling, even if you did not see them. This one was doing its tree top thing…but was still within reach of my Sony. In my opinion the Coopersmith is one of the more attractive barbets, and that is saying quite a bit. Sony Rx10iv at 600mm equivalent. Program mode with my custom birds and wildlife modifications. Processed in Pixelmator Pro and Apple Photos. ISO 100 @ f4 @ 1/1000th and 1/800th. Plus 1.3EV.
