Observation details
We observed 3 individuals soaring in the clouded sky while we were at the western part of the ponkunnu hills. They were very active with their calls, which we managed to record. Surprisingly, we were able to witness a fight between an Oriental Honey Buzzard and a Eurasian Kestrel during that time. The Kestrel was chased by the Honey Buzzard. Both of them made quick movements in the air, although not very high in the sky. The Honey Buzzard moved the Kestrel for a distance, where they soared, and finally, the Kestrel perched on a small tree in the distance.
