After the amazing sighting of the sub-adult Tigers at one far end of Bandhavgarh National Park, we headed back in the direction of the park gates while on the lookout for more wildlife. As we passed a man-made water saucer adjacent to the road, one of the last...

On this safari in Bandhavgarh National Park, we headed off to a different area, since we heard that sub-adult cubs of another Tigress were spotted on the previous drive. We drove all over the area, but we could not find the cubs. Then one of the cubs came into a...

Our maiden trip to Bandhavgarh National Park kept us wondering why we didn’t come to this park much earlier. On this first drive into Bandhavgarh, we drove along for a while on a cold wintery morning with no sightings of wildlife. We blamed it on the cold...

On one of our drives into Bandipur National Park, we spotted this male Shikra next to a waterhole. It should have come by to quench its thirst and gave us a few minutes to get a couple of pictures, before it flew away. The Grey-backed Shrike was an accidental catch. I...

We were on an afternoon safari in Kanha National Park when we saw a Barasingha grazing in a waterhole. I was wondering how would a distress call of a Barasingha sound and enquired with the guide. With the guide describing how the distress call would sound, we drove...

This was my third trip to Tadoba in as many months and I have had some of the most amazing Tiger sightings. However the most popular Tigress, known as Maya, eluded me till now. I was on the last safari of this trip and lucky for me, Maya finally showed herself. And...
