This post is a continuation of our sighting when we were watching an African Lion feasting on an Elephant carcass in Masaai Mara. We were at a distance and our driver was trying to figure out the best way around to get a closer look without getting stuck in the swampy...

We started our morning safari into the Bandhavgarh National Park. The temperature was below 5 degrees as we waited at the gates to get into the park. It was still pretty dark as well as we entered the park. Here’s a glimpse of the camera-unfriendly weather as we...
