It has been a long time since I posted a bird picture. It is not that I don’t click them anymore. But bird photography requires a lot of time and patience and I guess I lack the first for sure and many would vouch that I lack the second too! But here is one picture…

Peacocks in Plenty at Lakshman Sagar, Pali, Rajasthan
I do not find it that unusual to find peacock around. Both my collages had them at the campus, only I was not into photography then! But it has been a long long time since college so when I got to hear to the annoying sound that peacocks make I was rather glad. However bird…
Sunset at Lakshman Sagar, Pali, Rajasthan

National Elephant Conservation Center at Kuala Gandah, Pahang, Malaysia
I stopped at Kuala Gandah Elephant Sanctuary only for a few hours. I wish I had more time. When I got there I stood with others to listen to the rangers telling us the story of their elephants. It was obvious from the way they told the story that the elephants were a big part…
