Identifying Black Drongo by Rahat Azim Chowdhury

Captured within the lush surroundings of the National Botanical Garden in Dhaka, this striking portrait of a Black Drongo highlights the bird's iconic, wholly black plumage and distinctive forked tail. The photographer utilized a long focal length to isolate the subject against a soft, natural backdrop, emphasizing the bird's alert posture. Known as the 'Royal Crow' for its fearless, aggressive defense of its territory, the Black Drongo is captured here with remarkable clarity. This image is award-worthy for its technical precision in wildlife documentation, successfully freezing a moment of stillness in a species renowned for its spirited and dynamic behavior in the wild.
