This is again an image from my archives, sometime in 2012. This picture was captured in the Jhirna range of Corbett N.P. I was pleasantly surprised at the abundance of birds in the Jhirna zone as compared to Bijrani. While 2 jeeps zipped past us trying to search for the elusive tiger, I was more than happy to have found my lifer for the day in the form of this bird. My brother in law after a while, nudged me to get over with it and move ahead, I just didn't want to move away from this beautiful bird that was actually 'showing off' for a good 20mins on the same perch.
