Amazing Snaps of Ibis, Herons and Egrets at the Basai Wetland in Gurgaon


Feels great to see a Cattle Egret take a good shake before starting its day in the morning at the Basai Wetland in Gurugram. 


A lone White Ibis looks at me with curiosity even as an Egret peeps from below. Egrets and Ibis seem to tolerate each other fairly well!


As I said earlier, Egrets and Ibis seem to have a fairly good relationship with each other. Moreover, they seem to be fairly at ease with human beings around!


A Red-Naped Bronze coloured Ibis stands before a White Black-headed Ibis at the Basai Wetland in Gurgaon. Both of them belong to different families but live in close proximity to each other.


A Heron peeps into the water for a meal of fish. Herons are quite commonly found in the wetland of India. They are tolerant of human beings.


A Bee-eater preens itself at the Basai Wetland in Gurgaon. Bee-eaters can be found in great numbers on the outskirts of the town.



A Purple-Heron soars high in the sky over the Basai Wetland. Purple Herons are quite common wherever there is water on the surface. They happily consume fish and other amphibians, frogs and snails.
