CONTEXT
Rama and Lakshmana were searching for Sita. They slay the demon Kabandha. Before departing to heaven, he guides Rama and Lakshmana to Kishkindha City - Pampa Lake - Rishyamuka Mountain ruled by Sugriva. Here, Kabandha describes the delightful delicious birds available to the brothers for devoring.

GIST
These birds are unaccumstomed to hunting; hence they will not be capable of escaping. You can savor them like ghee gobs

BLOGGER'S VIEWS
Gist and blogger's views will be given later.
