Lesser florican (Sypheotides indicus)  Local Name - likh or kharmore, Record Shot © VIPs ☆Eye-catching in both appearance and behaviour l ☆The Lesser Florican is a bird of the dry grasslands and open fields that prefers drier ungrazed plains with grass upto the height of 0.51 m Flight : The flight of a Lesser Florican is characterized by rhythmic strokes of the broad wings, an outstretched neck and legs and feet tucked under. Floricans fly individually, not in flocks. Display and Territory Establishment: The most characteristic feature of the male Lesser Florican is the vertical jumping habit. The male stands at a selected place, looks around and leaps up to two meters high into the air with an energetic flurry of wing beats. Then, with wings tucked in, he falls swiftly back to the ground. During courtship males repeat this aerial display as many as 400 times a day, while producing a frog-like croak which can be heard from as far as 300-400 meters. The jump is used to set up a territory during the breeding season by warning other males to stay away and to lure potential mates.
