Yet Again ! Nagarahole 2017

Flying Malabar Squirrel Kabini as a winter wonderland was a stark contrast from the lush green paradise I had experienced earlier. Nothing better than foggy mornings and chilly late afternoons to get lost in nature and sight our four legged friends. The back drop of dry twigs and leaves of all colours make for good pictorial memories. And most of our friends obliged for our cameras. But It’s going to be tough summer for them as the water is scarce right in the month of January. Hope they are going to be alright! The elusive black panther remained elusive to our disappointment but we did get a  brief sighting of the Indian Leopard. And of course our other friends, the Indian gaur with its young ones, the flying Malabar squirrel putting up a show for us, the many water birds, all of it just made it another wonderful holiday in a green paradise.

Destination Kabini/ Nagarahole

The Majestic Elephant Nagarahole National Park has been a location of many fond memories from my teenage years. I was returning to this wonderful park after almost 20 years and was really excited about exploring it again. Though the elusive leopard did not honor us with his/her presence, the safaris were worth the time spent. The lush green park from the monsoons just made it a wonderland! The talented naturalist from Kabini river lodge led us through the maze of dirt roads and guided us to the sights of diverse wildlife. The perspective flip on the boat safari was the icing on the cake, an experience not to be missed.
