Media notes
Red-headed Falcon : chasing away an Egyptian vulture from its nesting territory. Conflict of interest ... This wonderful Egyptian was soaring on early summer morning thermals ..... rising out of a valley in Aravalis ..... surrounded by low hills ... craggy with stunted Acacia and scrub ... As he reached above the yonder hills ... suddenly a Red-necked Falcon sprang out of a tree to shoo him away ... and sure enough the Vulture had to dive down and away from the area ... Both species are known to nest in this area ... Elevation: 233 m. Date added to IBC: June 24, 2018.
