The Pale Harrier is pale grey in color and is smaller than the common Pariah Kite. It has black wing-tips and is very graceful in flight, which is typical of birds of prey. Spotting the harrier is quite difficult, as it moves constantly from one area to another. However, it can easily be identified from its call, kikee, kikeeee. Its presence is noticeable by the nervous flight and calls of smaller birds - like the Bulbul, Myna, Sparrow - in the area. It can be seen in this region during the winter.
For these photographs, I had positioned myself with the camera the moment its calls were heard and was lucky that it came within reasonably close distance, within a few minutes.
