Observation details
Clearly heard, seen and photographed! First heard distant flight calls (which I had trouble pinpointing) and then more typical calls inside a small growth of teak trees. After having observed a few bee-eaters, a sparrow-sized bright-green bird literally zipped past, less than three feet above me! It thankfully perched later on a nearby unidentified tree, allowing me to get some shots. After further observation, the diagnostic red rump also noted. Possibly two individuals, not an unexpected species in this region during this time of the year (check list https://ebird.org/india/checklist/S143980493 for more information.)
