Delonix alata. These trees are found in large numbers in Kokkare Bellur , the famous bird sanctuary near Maddur. Last month I posted the pictures showing birds on this tree to the group. These trees are also seen on Mahabalipuram road near the Golden Beach, Palavakkam in Chennai ( for the information of Dr. Padmini).
