Indian Date Palm (Phoenix Sylvestris) - Jungle Myna Bird (Acridotheres Fuscus) - Animal India
Jungle Myna birds hang from the fruit-laden branches of an Indian date palm, feeding on the pulp and carrying off the fruit in their beaks, in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on February 6, 2026. The Indian date palm, also known as the wild or silver date palm, is native to the Indian subcontinent and is recognized for its silvery-green fronds and sweet fruit. It plays a vital role in avian biodiversity by offering food, nesting sites, and shelter for many bird species. (Photo by Soumyabrata Roy/NurPhoto)
