A lifer - courtesy a broken bus (Dinopium benghalense)

Took a bus trip to Muttukadu for old time sake with my camera and backpack. The bus was crowded, and nothing had changed including having to stand cheek to jowl or the man on the seat kindly offering to carry my back pack for me. The bus driver was in a rush and went over a speed bump rather fast and the bus broke down. So decided to walk instead. And then this beauty flew to the tree o the opposite side of the highway.
