Remark : on 24/07/16 got a chance of Sunday Birding in morning.did birding till 11.30 and thought to Return home after superb sighting of Waterccock (Female & Male) with flying shots. Came on main road,i was about to turn on road to my home and sudden changed my mind to go opposite side just for drive and went upto 5km but didnt sighted any bird.so again stop the car n u-turn for home.after drive of 3km i saw a bird like a pond heron but neck was longer so stopped and took 5+photos.then accelerate the car but low speed and sudden saw a Waterccock (Female) lil away from me and without delay clicked 5-6 shots from the car.little soft at bill but lucky to have got good shot.
