1150: A Guest from Abroad

This stork ( Or Pelican??) is a migrating bird that nests and breeds near Bangalore during this season in a place called Kokkare Bellur, off from the Bangalore Mysore road. The villagers wait for these birds every year and are sad as they leave when monsoon sets in.

Painted storks (Ibis Leucocephalus) and spotted Pelicans are most common visitors here.
