December 2021 mobile calendar wallpaper:
A Comb duck (Sarkidiornis melanotos) is featured in the December mobile calendar wallpaper. This unusual looking bird is found in India, South China, Laos and Africa. They are possibly extinct in Pakistan and Srilanka. It largely feeds on vegetable matter, seeds, grasses, soft portions of aquatic plants etc. They nest close to water in large hollow tree cavities.

November 2021 mobile calendar wallpaper:
A Brahminy Kite (Haliastur indus) is the wallpaper calendar for the month of November 2021. It is a medium sized bird of prey and can be often seen hovering over wetlands, grasslands as well as seen near human habitations. In many parts of India their sighting used to be considered as auspicious. These days as a society our beliefs have changed so we don’t hear about it so much. Some consider it as the closest representation of the mythical Garuda, the half-man half-bird powerful being who is destroyer of snakes and vehicle of Lord Vishnu. It is also a revered bird in Indonesia, Malaysia and parts of south east asia.

October 2021 mobile calendar wallpaper:
A closeup image of a streaked spider hunter on a hibiscus flower has been chosen for the September 2021 wallpaper. This bird is of the size of a sparrow. Its beak is adapted to extract nectar from flowers. The weight is less and hence it can hold on to a flower in upside down position to feed on nectar. If a person waits near a flowering bush either in a hide or even in plain sight without any movement, then they can bless with their appearance. These birds are found in Malaysia, India, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Nepal and adjacent countries.

September 2021 mobile calendar wallpaper:
A closeup image of a Pied Kingfisher has been chosen for the September 2021 wallpaper. From a distance these kingfishers appear like a tiny black and white spec in the sky, hovering over a spot before decide whether to plunge into the water and grab the prey. However, nature is never drab. There is often a dash of colour if you observe closely. Kingfishers have a nictitating membrane to cover their eye when they dive into water. The membrane acts as a polarizing lens and hence they can accurately locate the prey under water. Whether you call it miracles of evolution or hand of God, nature is amazing.

August 2021 mobile calendar wallpaper:
Great Pied Hornbill is the bird of the month and adorns the August 2021 wallpaper. These hornbills perform a great role as seed dispersers in the forest. The Hornbills eat from various fruit bearing trees and then defecate elsewhere. The partially digested or completely undigested seeds (as the case may be according to the species) get transported in this manner to distant places and germinate. This results in increasing the forest diversity. These beautiful birds need tall trees where they can live in a hole. Without tall fruit bearing trees these birds will vanish and with them our forests too will perish.
July 2021 mobile calendar wallpaper:
An image of Pelican adorns the July 2021 wallpaper. This pelican was expressing its annoyance to another pelican who was trying to land close by. With their long beaks and the pouch their antics can tickle your funny bone. Once abundantly found in our wetlands in the winter, they are now restricted to our few wildlife sanctuaries. In some places, like Telineelapuram in Andhra, the day of their arrival is considered as a good day and celebrated like a festival.

June 2021 mobile calendar wallpaper:
An image of Openbilled stork drinking water has been chosen as the IndiaWilds June 2021 mobile wallpaper calendar. Openbilled storks are quiet common. During our childhood days I remember watching them in the rice fields. They can also be found in large ponds and wetlands. This image was captured in the morning when an open billed stork was drinking water. Too often we look for beauty in exotic birds and animals. We forget to recognize the beauty that is near us. Start conserving the natural places around you and bit by bit we can improve the environment. Do let us know in the comments section below.
May 2021 mobile calendar wallpaper:
For the month of May 2021 we have chosen an image of an Ibis flying with a snake in its beak. This image was shot in Chilika lake, Odisha. In the natural world every day is about life and death – hunt or be hunted. Everyday you need to start afresh, get your food and survive. In these days of Covid 19, we need to remember that our past glory means nothing. Just wake up to a new day and start afresh.

April mobile calendar wallpaper:
For the month of April we have chosen an image of a Painted Stork resting. This image was clicked near Pulicat Lake near Sriharikota. It was late morning and the Painted Stork had decided to conserve its energy and rest. Perhaps it is sending a message to us “Conserve your energy and be prepared to face any eventuality”.

March 2021 mobile calendar wallpaper:
For the month of March 2021 we have choosen an image of an adult Egyptian Vulture (Neophron percnopterus). It is smaller then other vultures and are the last ones to feed on a carcass often scavenging tiny morsels stuck in bones in difficult to reach places. They also engage in active predation of smaller prey. A paper in Nature journal describes that the Egyptian vultures engage in Coprophagy (eating faeces) of ungulate faeces. It says that the brightly ornamental head is coloured yellow by carotenoid pigments, and its practice of feeding on faeces. The details of the paper is (Coprophagy: An unusual source of essential carotenoids
The Egyptian vulture in a bright white background also resembles an old wise person. Let us take inspiration from this Old Monk to tap the wisdom from old souls.

For the month of February we have choosen the Brown winged kingfisher (Pelargopsis amauroptera) as the mobile wallpaper. In India, its natural habitat is the mangroves and is mostly found in Sundarbans in West Bengal and Bhitarkanika in Odisha.
