    hi Gurukrishna, what a wonderful series of birds you have posted! Also a great job on identifying the species on all of them, really well done. I'd like to ask you to also edit the title of each photo. You can do so using the "Edit details" button below each photo. It is recommended to include the species name and location in the title. In this example an example title could be "Hoopoe, <insert location here>". With a meaningful title more people will find your photos, so I hope you're willing to provide those titles.
