Had a very brief sightings and blurred photographs of this bird from couple of months. On 17th March 2021, spotted the male on nearby tree. Yellow and black is one of my favorite color combination for minimalist leaflet design. This birds bright yellow colors and dark patches on wings, near eye(in males) etc. are really distinctive.

Shikra is also called as little banded goshawk.
Observed a juvenile for the first time on 12th March 2021 from terrace. Same evening observed an adult but couldn’t click a clear picture. Shikra is bird of prey. Had heard of Shikra as one who takes away young chicks of hen. Hopeful of clicking good pictures of adult soon. (Updating: Just a day later, spotted Adult male. Uploading pictures now.)
