Painted Francolin

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> i have some birds in wishlist and Painted Francolin is one of them.its a very shy bird and always run inside the grass or bushes when notify human.one day munia man Paragbhai msg me a image on whatsapp and ask for id and replied him its a Painted Francolin. PK is very always giving location whenever he sees a new bird.so i told him to go one day.<br /> As planed to go on 13th August and called PK but he had night shift so PK didnt came with me but i reached at given location.PK also remind me to go before 9am n i was searching this beauty here and there by making my way thru mud and soil but till 9.30am didnt find it even though hearing continuous calling.<br /> i was little disappointed due to not sighting of bird even after hearing a call and Around at 9.20am thought to return to my cheetah to go somewhere else place.after siting in my cheetah drink some water and turn on car to on AC as too much humid n sudden seen this beauty on wall,70-100mtr away.without delay clicked some shots and it fly away inside the grass.<br /> This shot was not upto my mark so will go again for best shot for me.<br /> These species of birds are small in size, measuring 30 cm in length and weighing 250 to 350 grams. The face is rufous and the legs are yellowish orange. The females are paler than the males. The legs are devoid of spurs.<br /> Special Thanks to  Parag Kuberkar aka MuniaMan<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmWp2D8SJd1HlNQtFO_DUF-9IXBoQPMt2BqpKIB4zJRdrvBlCEYNRk-5rSw6ujshe0hONA-qIA94eIV_ytf-7lIjvXbsKWQvnmKMaE-UYSS-4zsiWUomkgN2TiL46Iiq7caFfiEZhz139N/s1600/Painted+Francolin.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmWp2D8SJd1HlNQtFO_DUF-9IXBoQPMt2BqpKIB4zJRdrvBlCEYNRk-5rSw6ujshe0hONA-qIA94eIV_ytf-7lIjvXbsKWQvnmKMaE-UYSS-4zsiWUomkgN2TiL46Iiq7caFfiEZhz139N/s640/Painted+Francolin.jpg" width="532" /></a></div> <br /> <div class="" data-block="true" data-editor="5utq" data-offset-key="fbgmo-0-0"> <div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="fbgmo-0-0"> <span data-offset-key="fbgmo-0-0"><span data-text="true">Exifs :</span></span></div> </div> <div class="" data-block="true" data-editor="5utq" data-offset-key="4aegs-0-0"> <div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="4aegs-0-0"> <span data-offset-key="4aegs-0-0"><span data-text="true">Canon 7D Mark2</span></span></div> </div> <div class="" data-block="true" data-editor="5utq" data-offset-key="5vlu-0-0"> <div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="5vlu-0-0"> <span data-offset-key="5vlu-0-0"><span data-text="true">Aperture-Priority AE Mode</span></span></div> </div> <div class="" data-block="true" data-editor="5utq" data-offset-key="7untm-0-0"> <div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="7untm-0-0"> <span data-offset-key="7untm-0-0"><span data-text="true">f /8 || Shutter speed 1/3200 || ISO 2500 || 600mm || White Balance : 5200k</span></span></div> </div> <div class="" data-block="true" data-editor="5utq" data-offset-key="ccr7-0-0"> <div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="ccr7-0-0"> <span data-offset-key="ccr7-0-0"><span data-text="true">Surat outskirt, Gujarat</span></span></div> </div> </div>
