Observation details

Mr. P.C.Rajeevan from Kannur spotted the bird in the morning.He gave the massage and told the exact location of the sighting. For the lifer I came early from school and visit the spot.I noticed paady field pipits, malabar larks and some Jerdons bush larks.I felt very sad and planned to return. Within the seconds one small black size bird came by flight and took seat on the grass land.Already I read some tips from page no 488 of the HELM FIELD GUIDE to identify the Baluchian. So first I observed the pinkish bill.Then the whitish eye-ring.Long tail with black pacths.I really srprised continuous eating habit of the bird in the dry grassland. I took some shots and recorded just 44 second vedio because of poor light. Same time my friend Hareesh also came that way and he is lucky to see the bird.At last my uncle Thomas came there and asked what's special.? See here is the Baluchian.Uncle rushed near to me and said," will not get to go Baluchistan.But will see the Baluchistan Bird".
