Ladakh - 2013

I found myself in Ladakh again, the place where I began this project four years ago.

Common Rosefinch (Carpodacus erythrinu)

These delightfully coloured finches are found all over the valleys here. This one was shot in a wheat field in a village called Rumbak.

Hill Pigeon (Columba rupestris)

Looks a lot like the common Rock Pigeon but can be distinguished based on the white band on the tail which become visible when the bird is in flight.

Red-Fronted Serin (Serinus pusillus)

White-winged Redstart (Phoenicurus erythrogastrus)

Robin Accentor (Prunella rubeculoides)
