I was in Yala in the 4th week of May 2014 with a friend of mine camping at " Negeniyantota" camp site and after 21 years of visiting almost all the national parks in Sri Lanka on a regular basis , finally was able to photograph the most illusive Sri Lanka Sloth Bear and I was thrilled to bits.
This sighting was made at 5.45 in the morning. Luckily the sun rises early in the morning these days and thus I was able to photograph this early.
