Munias in a Wheat Field by Nu Yai Sing Marma

In February 2025, I ventured out early in the morning to capture photographs on the Rajshahi University campus. Amidst the university's experimental wheat fields, I witnessed a rare sightβ€”a flock of Scaly-breasted Munia and White-rumped Munia feeding on wheat seeds. Such a gathering of different munia species is uncommon, making this moment a remarkable experience. The scene beautifully highlighted the diversity and charm of nature

Kofi Asante Intimate Portraiture, Reportage & Lives Told Truthfully Expert Review
There’s a quiet, frantic energy in these Munias that I find deeply relatable. They’re busy, oblivious to the lens, and entirely themselves. While I usually look for the human connectionβ€”the way a subject meets my gazeβ€”there’s a different kind of trust here. It’s the trust of the wild, allowing the photographer to exist in their space without scattering. It’s a lovely, fleeting moment. I’d love to sit in that field and just watch them breathe.

The Weight of Small Things

I keep a small, dried wheat stalk tucked inside the pages of a book I rarely open. It is brittle now, the color of a fading sunset, and if I touch it too firmly, it threatens to turn into dust.
