Post lunch Terence took us for walk thru what might be one of the best patches of forest this close to Mumbai - here, the highly elusive Malabar Giant Squirrel lived up to its elusive nature. A Blue Oakleaf (butterfly) with its stunning camouflage kept the group captivated for a while, but the promise of some stunning views of the valley from ‘Our point’ kept the group moving. Once at Our point a lone Common Kestrel gave us a majestic fly-past. Our hotelier later told us that he has been seeing a pair nesting on the cliffs below Our point over the past few years.
