A fantastic find but as soon as we arrived, they beat a retreat !

Strutting his stuff in the undergrowth ! Mrs Junglefowl is so dull compared to her hubby

Collared Falconet

Right at the top of the tree, taken from a tiger trecking jeep with engine running! Couldn't get any closer but it was a stunning bird.

Citrine Wagtail

Great Barbet

Plenty of these Barbets but they were always in the canopy or dense vegetation

Common Myna

Dusky Eagle Owl

Owl can just be seen in the V

Brown Dipper

Always the wrong side of the sun and didn't fancy paddling !

The Himalayas

The sky was the bluest blue. I have 100's of pics of these mountains - they were just breathtaking!

Bluethroat

River Ganges

Couldn't help but stop and look at the river and it's people. Some washing their clothes, others bathing, a funeral pyre in the distance, black kites circling overhead and kids in rowing boats collecting money thrown in to make a wish ! It could only be India !

Elephant

He stopped for a light snack !

Karen

At Sat-Tal......notice how many clothes I have on !

Black Kites

Driving through Delhi there were 1000's and 1000's of black kites on these pylons. We have never seen so many !
