Crow Pheasant - Animal India

Crow Pheasant - Animal India

The Greater Coucal, or Crow Pheasant (Centropus sinensis), is a large, non-parasitic bird belonging to the cuckoo order, Cuculiformes, found in the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia. With a length of 48 cm, the Greater Coucal is known for its distinctive booming 'coop coop coop' calls, which are often associated with omens. The female's call is lower-pitched than that of the male. These calls can typically be heard in scrublands, light forests, and cultivated areas, which are its preferred habitats. On May 11, 2024, a Greater Coucal was spotted in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, searching for food and water during a heatwave. (Photo by Soumyabrata Roy/NurPhoto)

          An Indo-Pacific Gecko (Hemidactylus garnotii), also known as Garnot's House Gecko or the Fox Gecko, is seen attempting to enter a switchboard in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on November 13, 2024. This nocturnal species, found across India, the Philippines, Southeast Asia, Australia, and Polynesia, is unique for its parthenogenic reproduction, as all individuals are female and lay eggs that hatch without male fertilization. Geckos entering electrical systems can pose risks, potentially causing electrical faults, appliance failures, and even fires. (Photo by Soumyabrata Roy/NurPhoto)

              Anthene Emolus - Ciliate Blue Butterfly - Animal India

              A Ciliate Blue butterfly (Anthene emolus), also known as the Bengal Common Ciliate Blue, rests on a leaf in a forest in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on November 10, 2024. The male of this species displays a dull purple upperside with blue-suffused wing bases, accented by jet-black anticiliary lines, which slightly expand at the apex of the forewing. The female, in contrast, has a brown upperside with a soft violet-blue gloss near the wing bases. Butterflies like the Ciliate Blue are facing an increasing risk of extinction across South Asia due to habitat loss, climate change, and pesticide use, echoing a global trend. Conservation efforts by scientists in South Asia aim to protect these vital pollinators. The scene captures the butterfly with a soft, natural light bokeh from the forest in the background.
