Yesterday ...
There was presence of
Army and
Para-military forces
in and around sesitive
areas ... as we
drove through these
towns and location ...
Though, there was an
under-current of
suspicion ... the day
remained peaceful ...
... largely ...
Birding was good
as well ...
The interiors ... and
wilderness where we
roamed ... simply
elevating ... and apt
remedy for the malaise ...
We saw five species of
Owls ... one of them was
a lifer ...
They will all be here
soon ...
__________
Meanwhile ... I share
another lifer ...
The Magnificent Osprey
A truly International Species
... captured in the
evening end of the
' Beach-day ' ... Sun was
at a level lower than
the bird ... and we were
moving out of the
Charakhla Salt Pans ...
... about 120 km west of
Jamnagar ...
Watch the moment in a
small video-clip ...
