THE KALIJ PHEASANT

One of the very rare migrants to India. When I got the information that lesser kestrel can be found near Pune I was a bit excited. Upon further enquiry can to know that it is seen just 4 kms away from where my construction site is in progress.
The Next morning went to the place and made some very nice images of this female. There were almost 6 to 7 females and all were very bold allowing me crawl and make an awesome image.
