wow! Thanks, drpalombella, for all the hard work :)
"using PN to identify something else in PN" is a cool idea. I need to try this on some of my old spottings.

Thanks, Ava! Thanks everyone for helping :)

@Carol: haha Agreed!

Nice! I too spotted these yesterday in Southern India (near Mysore). I'll upload my spotting soon.

Thanks, Ashish. It certainly looks like desert locust. I'll update the spotting.

Thanks for the ID, Kalee!

Thanks again, ForestDragon! It definitely looks like some variety of Carpenter Bee. It seems to resemble more with "Xylocopa waterhousei" but the wings looks different.

Thanks for the pointers, ForestDragon. I'll try to zero in on the ID with these details.

Never seen such spiders!

Thanks for the ID, Nuwan :)

Thanks for the ID, Adarsha :)
