Born to rule (Accipiter badius)

Saw a programme called India's Elephant Mountain on Nat Geo wild just now. It is about a place called Anaimalai, our neighbouring town. That brought back memories and had to look at some old photos of mine. Saw this juvenile Shikra on a tree along the roadside.

It's amazing how a television programme can send your mind down a memory road you had long since forgotten, isn't it Sandeep. LOL I've often ignored the rest of the programme while I start Googling away or, like you, hunting through my files and archives!!!

That's a fabulous picture you've taken of this young Shikra my friend. Very well done laddie.
