WILPATTU TRIP IN FEBRUARY 2016

I wen to Wilpattu  in the 3rd week of February with seven friends and camped out for 2 days.


On our way we cut across from the 89th Km post and went through Anawilundawa and were fascinated by the abundance of waders.



On the way to the site we got a glimpse of this Leopard. Apparently 3 cubs have been spotted here every day for some time now.
