Baya Weaver birds fighting over a nest, Uran, India - 13 Sep 2009

Hanging On In There
These three birds ruffled a few feathers when they tried hanging out together.
The Baya Weaver birds got into a scuffle over a nest and ended up in a bizarre chain link.
With its brightly coloured yellow crown, the male who had built the nest attempted to break up a disagreement between two females.
Photographer Krishnan Venkitachalam was photographing a colony of nests when he saw the squabble kicking off.
Instinctively, the 45-year-old trained his lens on the action to capture the remarkable scenes before the birds flew off within seconds.
Krishnan said he was thrilled to have photographed such unusual images.
He said: "I was trying to photograph two birds chasing each other but it was difficult because they are so small and fast.
"Suddenly, I noticed a bird fly into a nest, and then two more came and within an instant they were all hanging from the nest.
"I instinctively shifted my camera to focus on the nest and managed to get some shots off. The entire incident lasted about three seconds.
"I think the two females were competing for the nest the male had built and perhaps he was trying to break up the argument."
Krishnan, from Mumbai, India, took the photos in the wetlands of nearby Uran.
He added: "I felt really pleased when I looked at the results because these kinds of moments are not often captured on camera.
"I didn't really realise what was going on until after I analysed the pictures.
"I was in the right place at the right time, with the right gear and most importantly looking in the right direction!"

The Weaving Industry Of Bangladesh
October 9, 2025, Ullapara, Sirajganj, Bangladesh: In Ullapara, Sirajganj, a traditional power loom operator works meticulously to craft a sari. Sirajganj is known as the weaving hub of Bangladesh, where thousands of people from Ullapara, Shahjadpur, and Chauhali depend on this age-old craft for their livelihood. The power loom, an evolution of the traditional handloom, is used to weave fabric from threads with the help of mechanical power. It usually takes about 3 to 6 hours to complete a single sari, which sells for between 500 () and 2000 (6) Bangladeshi Taka depending on its quality and design.
