There were bout 10-12 of them at one spot last morning. All the males(adults and juveniles) were busy with displays and battling each other while the females watched. This whole saga lasted for a couple of hours before the sun came up. The were joined on and off by a pair of Black-naped Monarch, a Tickell's Blue flycatcher, a few Red throated flycatchers, some White-throated Fantails, a couple of Indian Scimitar Babblers busy in courtship(again lasted bout 2 hours), some Yellow-eyed Babblers, a Eurasian Blackbird, Small Minivets and the remaining usuals like prinias, bulbuls, robins etc. To top it all, a young Crested Hawk Eagle was busy carrying nesting material around while an adult bird was out scanning for a meal. All in all it was a really fun morning.
