FIRST VISIT TO YALA FOR 2017 IN MAY....


This time around this was my first visit to Yala for 2017 which was quite unusual. I went with my family and the family we got acquainted in Vietnam for a day trip and we were quite lucky to have seen quite a number of birds and animals.




This baby Elephant who was with its family went back to the stream alone and had fun in the water.

This brown Fish Owl was detected on a tree very close by and allowed us to take enough pictures and did not mind.


A female Indian Robin
This Asian Paradise Flycatcher was dipping into the water many times may be to clean itself.
A changeable Hawk Eagle
We were lucky as we saw this Leopard around 7 am and for a couple of minutes only our Jeep was in the vicinity allowing us to take a few shots.





This cub would have been days old and was checking its ability to  move.

A serpent Eagle

May be a friendly fight...??

Ba-ya Weaver bird and a nest
A Rudy Mongoose

A pied Cookoo

The famous Tusker "GAMUNU" .Though everyone wanted to see  him  precautions were taken not to get very close as he is famous for putting the trunk inside the vehicles and scaring the people.
