geraldo not really bald they are. but as they are likely scavengers also here it may appear in some species how regularly eat flash and that to of the sick animals..
Cleverly done Mital, to capture the crow using the horn as a perch. Comp works well, and I like the detail around the head. I would have preferred the membrane open.
stuart this time i do have that too but this image specially gave me some interesting things happening including perch so it was out of profile but a different showcase shot. :)
Hey Mital. News flash: this crow is uglier than most :) Are you saying that whenever they land on the cow's horn that the nictitating membrane is always closed? I do like the EXP, the pose, and the disheveled look.

Ah, that is what I thought. But the nictitating membrane is not used for sleep, it is used to protect the eye, or sometimes it more resembles our blinking.

thats very much right artie.
I meant to say they used to do so frequently like this when they got sleepy. Also one more reason because of the open bodies of cows, buffaloes, sheep, goats, camel the insects used to fly around faces of birds and harrase them to get off from the place ..
