Always a celebrity wherever it goes, this particular one was a tad too lazy(or proud?) to open up its wings and made most of the papparazzis to wait impatiently, until most of us settled for a similar shot as this one.
This particular beauty was seen feeding on the rotting fruits kept out from them along the garden of Ovalekarwadi, and probably due to the time of the day, seemed too less active and rather was happy feeding on the juices with its wings all closed up, though eventually opened up after almost 10-15mins.

Anyone can mistake it for a dry leaf, if not observed closely. Nature is so amazing in its colours and patterns. Good details. Thanks for sharing.
