Passionate about bird photography, Arshdeep says, “I still recall the moment when I spotted a greater coucal who was on the ground, bird was very quiet and calm. Whenever, I travel to Kapurthala I often see this bird almost on weekend trips. It’s obvious incessant call, red eyes, copper brown wings on a black body cannot be missed. My best sighting of this was when I got to watch it foraging on the ground from just a few meters away.”
