BAIJU PATIL
HUNTING SKILL

This photo was taken in Dharur, Maharashtra, India.
The Bird name is drongo. The sugarcane is cut before the onset of summer and the remaining leaves are then burnt in the field and when the grass is burnt, insects fly from the grass and eat the insects. Hedrongo's behavior is that they often go inside the full mesh fire but they catch the insects and as the grass burns the insects fly and they are there in groups they hunt and eat it.
