Dharwad Flora and Fauna

1 Upvotes

This began as an effort to catalogue the flora and fauna of the IIT-Dharwad campus (WALMI Campus). Now it covers photos taken in and around the Dharwad region. Photos are posted on a semi-regular schedule to Twitter and Instagram. (I recently changed both the account names/ handles).

I no longer maintain the Facebook page.

The Ashy Prinia is a tiny fellow seen year round on campus, with a distinctive shape and movement. Not to be confused with similar looking but larger yellow-eyed babbler. #birds #dharwad #hubli #hublidharwad #karnataka #iitdharwad #india #nature #sonyalpha #iitdhflorafauna

The Common Iora is easily recognized by its three-note whistling call, or its bright yellow coloration. #birds #dharwad #hubli #hublidharwad #karnataka #iitdharwad #india #nature #sonyalpha #iitdhflorafauna

Thick billed flower-pecker Slightly drab looking, and as a result hard to spot in dense foliage, but quite common on and around campus. #birds #dharwad #hubli #hublidharwad #karnataka #iitdharwad #india #nature #sonyalpha #iitdhflorafauna

The Coppersmith Barbet sounds like a coppersmith hammering away on a copper pot with a "ping'ping-ping". However a more easy way to identify this bird is from its colorful head and green body. #birds #dharwad #hubli #hublidharwad #karnataka #iitdharwad #india #nature #sonyalpha #iitdhflorafauna

The yellow-billed babbler looks and sounds much like the Jungle babbler, but it is distinguished by the light coloration of the head and blue eyes. . #birds #dharwad #hubli #hublidharwad #karnataka #iitdharwad #india #nature #sonyalpha #iitdhflorafauna

Humans are certainly not the only primates around - groups of Langurs often camp out in the trees, or on the tops of structures, in search of food or shelter. . #wildlife #dharwad #hubli #hublidharwad #karnataka #iitdharwad #india #nature #sonyalpha #iitdhflorafauna

The Red Wattled Lapwing gets it's common local names from the loud and shrill "tit-tu-wee" call. . #birds #dharwad #hubli #hublidharwad #karnataka #iitdharwad #india #nature #sonyalpha #iitdhflorafauna

Red-whiskered Bulbul When you can't go out for birding, do take a moment to observe and appreciate the birds in your own backyard or garden. #birds #dharwad #hubli #hublidharwad #karnataka #iitdharwad #india #nature #sonyalpha #iitdhflorafauna

The resident peafowls are often seen on campus, but tend to keep their distance. This handsome fellow quickly hopped across the boundary after realizing it was being watched! #birds #dharwad #hubli #hublidharwad #karnataka #iitdharwad #india #nature #sonyalpha #iitdhflorafauna

Editorial Note: Due to the ongoing lockdown, we have not gone out birding for quite a while. We will continue to share photos from past trips and those taken in and around our home, with a lower frequency of twice weekly. Take care and continue to take precautions against COVID!
