Did you notice the blue colour on the bird’s throat? That’s how this bird got its name, Bluethroat. This is a male, the blue colour is either very pale or not present in females. It is also one of those birds whose naming conventions is based on male’s plumage. Easy to identify. #birds #nature #wetlands #wildlife #wildlifeconservation #wetlandconservation #wetlandrestoration #birdsofindia #birdsofmastadon #migratorybirds
