Thanks a lot Sindhu :) and yes I googled the name you gave and you are correct. These are caesalpinia flowers very much similar to Gulmohar. the wikipedia page still shows this flower image as gulmohar. :-) I was initially surprised as red gulmohar is generally found in end of summer season / rainy season. But then I thought , may be I was wrong about its time. I am really impressed about your knowledge in Botany (o) (h)
Just now I am humming a song starts "Gulmohar Malare(flower in Tamil)".. Here the flower is.. :) Dejavu for me! excellent pics
