BIRD ON TRAIL
Indian Sarus Crane
Sarus Crane feed on fields and it\'s very uncommon to spot them on such trails, where there is always some movement of visitors inside the Keoladev park. That day I have decided to take this particular trail and during early morning hours and infact I was not expecting Crane pair on the trail. It was a bit hazy day with mist around. The truth is that I was not very keen to spot them because I knew that they feed far from the reach. At least I haven\'t spotted them ever so close. This was indeed a moment of joy for me to spot this giant bird at this place with Sanctuary\'s signature trails and surroundings in the background. I am not very sure but most of the guides inside park told me that it\'s a rare sighting, I don\'t claim it but the landscape with the presence of this majestic bird made my day and if it is actually rare sighting then I am very thankful to the Nature that I had witnessed and captured it. It is a distance shot because they are extremely sensitive to any movement around and but I am glad that it has given me a better frame of this particular moment.
