But it will after some months. In monsoon every bird is spread out away...they gather again after September. I will show them here.. definitely..!!

thanks Cynthia for the ID..I wish I could get closer...the boat I was on was passing too fast for me to take a closer shot. Thanks Ashish for describing their habitat.
