Detalhes da observação

We saw the first malkoha on a dried tree first thing when we reached. It flew away when we came. Then we observed that there was pair jumping here and there in the vicinity and we could see both from the tower. My mother pointed to us that the malkoha came on a perch. Myself and Pathania sir approached the bird and got some great shots of it on a dried tree and we were happy. Then when we were looking at a falcon near the tower, a Malkoha came and sat in front of . We were astonished. We took more photos and suddenly it jumped to the ground. I immediately took probe position to get eye level shots and Pathania sir and my mother stood besides me. As I clicked the bird, to my amazement, the Malkoha came towards us walking like a Mongoose! It kept coming towards us and we were only at a metres distance from. It was as if it could not see us. Finally after 5 minutes of posing for us, it was sacred away not by us but a helicopter which flew from above. It was a great time experience.
