Thursday, 10 December 2009 Dear Friends,
*Vanakkam! *Greetings from Chennai. This has reference to my mail yesterday sharing a pic of Common Jay sighted at Nanmangalam Reserve Forest (12°55'31.12"N & 80°10'27.84"E), Chennai on Sunday, 06 December 2009 Thanks to Ravi, I realised that there's some problem with my camera setting and the brown colour was darker than usual. However, when I looked up Isaac's book (pg 120) even the UN is seen in bright blue colours while the one in Chennai was only ivory-white in colour (even through the naked eye). Although the UP was bright blue, which I could see a glimpse while it was on flight. (I wasn't able to to manage getting the UP pic, despite several tries) Is there a seasonal/ geographic variation or was the one I had seen a juvenile? Would love to learn the details :~) With kind regards, ramjee Chennai -- Enjoy
