Love is in the rain Amidst the glittering monsoon waters of the Western Ghats, the elusive Nasikabatrachus sahyadransis serenades in a dreamy display of nature’s wonder. : Purple frog Nasikabatrachus sahyadrensis : Shot on @sonyalphain Alpha 1 + FE 90 mm F2.8 Macro G OSS : : : : @natgeoindia @natgeo @bbcearth @sonybbcearth @naturein_focus @wctindia @natgeoyourshot @natgeoasia #macro #purplefrog #nasikabatrachussahyadrensis #herping #wildlifephotography #wild #yourshotphotographer #yourshot_india #bbc #bbcearth #natgeo #natgeoyourshot #natgeoindia #natgeowild #earthcapture #earthpix #earth #igdaily #pubity @earth @rgsustain

Parenting in the canopy—this Great Hornbill fed its chick a wild mix of snake and berries! Shot handheld with the new Sony FE 400–800 mm F6.3–8 G OSS @sonyalphain , which made tracking and detailing a breeze even in dense foliage. Lightweight, razor-sharp, and made for the Western Ghats. Witnessing this incredible moment in the Western Ghats—a Great Hornbill delivering both a snake and berries to its chick—was nothing short of magical. The new Sony 400-800mm lens truly elevated the experience: exceptional sharpness, quick focus lock, and surprisingly light for handheld birding. Even in thick canopy clutter, it kept the subject locked in with great detail. If you’re into birding in rugged terrains like the Ghats, this lens might just be the game-changer. This one’s staying in the kit. #Hornbill #WesternGhats #Sony400800 #BirdingGear #WildlifeMoments #ForestChronicles #BirdsofIndia #HandheldWildlife#natgeoyourshots #natgeo #natgeoindia #yourshotphotographer #yourshotindia #bbcearth #bbcwildlifepotd #natgeoyourshotphotographer #wildlifephotography #createwithsony #kerala #westernghat #wildlife #sebinster #igdaily #instagram #createwithsony @natgeoindia @natgeo @natgeoyourshot @insidenatgeo @bbcearth @bbcwildlifemagazine @sanctuaryasia @rawrszn @pubity
