Observation details
Surprised to find so many flying close to the water surface and also sitting on the pathways and shrubs, in hundreds. Have taken numerous pictures of them flying as well as sitting. The pictures do not do justice to the numbers we sighted. Made few videos on phone camera too. It was impossible to count them in exact numbers but the number quoted could be far higher. Never ever have seen such a beautiful sight before. The only other sight comparable is of videos of bats coming out of the caves!
