No Roopak. Our driver and guide were noisy customers, so the birds when I had first spotted them itself had run into the bushes. I forced our driver to switch off the engine and wait. It was afer 7-8min that around 5 of these birds darted across the road. This is one of the two sharp images I got.

Good that you could get this bird. How much crop? Which AF point were you using? It becomes easier if you wait and these ones are likely to come close. Thanks for sharing.

Quite a large crp actually. I was using the centre AF point. The focus is locked on the body of the bird in this image. Any particular reason for asking about AF point?

Thanks
