Remember that mandapam you've been seeing in the last 2 posts (here & here). As I went around it, clicking its sculptures, I was stopped by the sound of parrots. Atop a couple of coconut trees there, were these gorgeous parrots. I clicked some. Then I stopped. Changed my lens, so I could zoom in well on those beauties and continued. I totally lost track of time and my friends had left the temple and the temple was closing down!!! Since I was missing, friends called me and only then did I realize the time lapse!!!
