Tumlingtar Tree Yellow

Gandaca harina (Horsfield) 1829

Habitat:

Sandy Arun river bank. Hot place.

Notes:

Spotted this beauty among a group of 7-8 similar ones hovering and settling once in a while on a sandy stretch of river bank. It was a hot day. NB: Since similar species have been tagged by scientists with locality names I too want to dedicate this one to this beautiful place called Tumlingtar.

There's a direct flight from Kathmandu to Tumlingtar. Best of luck.

I would dream to visit and see Mt. Makalu :-)

Thanks Daniele for the appreciation. Despite the local airport, the place is desolate and different! Yes, one can enjoy the beautiful Mt. Makaa-lu Range. In fact, this place leads to the Mountain.

The colour and detail on this Tree yellow are just beautiful Dr. Sherpa. Tumlingtar looks like a wonderful place.

Yasin, thanks for the invitation, but geographically the two locations are far apart and quite different. Will definitely post when spotting nearby.
