Bird life in the Thondamanaru Lagoon, Sri Lanka.

'Black-winged stilt'

'Eurasian Curlew'

'Indian Pond-heron'

'Painted Stork'

On a 15 minute drive from Thondamanaru to Idaikkaadu one passes through the side of the Lagoon. Bird life in December is plentiful. I took these pictures from inside the van using a 70-300mm VR lens on my Nikon D90.
