Today, could not go out as I was not well. But I could hear a distinct call of Indian Grey Hornbill so went near the window. There was a pair of Grey Hornbills which one by one flew from Mangrove tree to a far away tree on the hill side. One sat on the branch while the other vanished in trees beyond it. This Grey Hornbill I could immediately spot with binoculars. Tried to click his photo but it was not very clear picture. Also, as it always happen the crows gather around Hornbills and gang him up and shoo him off the place. This time also, they were sitting closer to Hornbill and watching him and crowing until finally the Hornbill flew away and joined his partner deep in the bushes towards the hills.
