Hi Sabyasachi,

Thank you for the suggestions.
This event happened very unexpectedly and hence did not have enough time to change the exposure setting accordingly.

The female was sitting on a high perch and was continuously calling out. By the time we figured that it was giving mating calls and calling out her partner, the male came and started mating. It lasted for less than 6 to 8 seconds. The male then sat on a thorny bush nearby and struggled a lot to cut a piece of twig. He then brought it as a present to the female, again mating for another few seconds. As it started to rain, we had to move out of that place...
