Photographed recently at Karnala fort. Was more of a trek than a bird watching trip, but managed a few shots and some lovely raptor sightings from the top. Looking forward to making another trip with enough time to spare for photography.
The Shaheen falcon (Falco peregrinus peregrinator) is the resident Indian counterpart of the peregrine falcon (Falco peregrinus peregrinus). Saw a pair of these falcons foraging and carrying food to the nest. We couldn't see the nest as it was on a high-up ledge, but we could hear the chick(s?). This one has something in its talons, not sure what it is...
