Mount Abu weather during the last week of August was typically the weather of the gods, heavy to very heavy showers of rain with an intermittent spell of fine drizzle throughout the day. Misty throughout the day. With the sun blotched out, shooting in dull light sure posed a challenge. I was fortunate to photograph the Oriental Darter a lifer for me here in Abu. Appreciate my collection of snaps and slideshows posted below,

WATCH IN FULL FRAME TO SEE THESE BEAUTIFUL BIRDS.
