Observation details
Single Pratincole seen from very far away initially while walking towards the waterbody by MP. Later during the time spent on the banks, scoped. Turned out to be a large flock of Oriental Pratincoles settled amidst bank vegetation and very difficult to locate. Seen with scope by all. In flight white on upper tail and short tail. While settled on the bank, seen preening/feeding and "hopping". The count was the final count of 35 that flew up all together and settled at another location along with 4 birds that left this flock earlier. Photographed.
