A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Pastor roseus
I saw huge flocks of these birds in Delhi during winter. These are migratory...and return when the scorching Delhi summer begins. I was told that when these birds return in summer they are killed and eaten...because these are also frugivores apparently their flesh is sweet to eat. I did not have the heart to believe...but now....
I guess life can get tough around there sometimes but it's a real pity if the wildlife has to suffer too.
They throw little blocks of rat poison everywhere, he probably ate some of it.
