During my quarantine in Rajasthan for the early part of 2020, the birds were my companions while walking in the fields. My host family welcomed me without question and gave me a room in which to stay for six weeks until my return home. So I would set up the camera on the tripod in the middle of the field and walk around and around. Once the moon was just right and birds started to fly, I would cross over to the center of the field to release the shutter. So this image has immense meaning for me, and I am thankful to have had such friends both on the ground and in the sky.

Four Birds + Four Wires, Rajasthan, India, 2020
This was Day 2 in a police enforced quarantine while in India, thankfully in my friend's village rather than the hospital. After much negotiation this was my view on that evening, rather than four walls and a small window. The quarantine will soon hopefully end, all the while being able to walk freely with an array of the most beautiful birds all around me. While human photography is less possible right now, I'm just in love with birds on wires.
