Suddenly flew in and plopped down onto the volley ball court. Was quite unreactive to our actions around. Disappeared around when it started getting dark. Seen with @vsanchi, @thileepan, @visu. Photos by Navneeth, uploaded with his permission.

Crashed into a neighbour' s glass window..Tried flying after a while and again crashed into another neighbours window. PFA was called to check for injuries ..The bird was revived with some sugar water by the PFA person and we released it in a nearby orchard, away from houses soon after
