Greater Spotted Eagle, Cheepunkal, Kumarakam 22 Jan 2012Oriental Turtle Dove, Kumarakam 22 Jan 2012
During the 2012 Vembanad waterfowl count I surveyed Kaipuzhamuttu and Cheepunkal areas with Adv Sureshbabu Thomas, Manu and other friends. The highlight was a pair of Greater Spotted Eagles combing Cheepunkal fields. We also spotted an Oriental Turtle Dove there which is a second sighting in the region. A Chestnut Bittern was also seen.
