Born in Goa, D'Silva worked with Salim Ali and illustrated several of his books published by the Bombay Natural History Society.[1] When Salim Ali's Book of Indian Birds was revamped for his birth centenary in 2002 (13th ed.), Carl re-did all the drawings.[2] He has also illustrated a number of bird field guides produced by Christopher Helm.
