Corbett part 2

The last set of pictures from Corbett National Park;





Scaly-bellied Woodpecker













Wild Boar, taken from a moving elephant, not as easy as it sounds.

Irreverant, moi?
A bust of the legendary Jim Corbett, who set up the park way back when.

Lineated Barbet












Golden Mahaveer, and Black Mahaveer. If they did fish and chips in india, I would want one of them!!! with mushy peas of course




Pallas's Fish Eagle






River Lapwing, again taken from a moving elephant
Sunrise over the grassland banks of the Ramganga River


The other elephant that was with us on our morning safari




















Gharial Crocodile ,showing its amazing long snout, ideal for catching those Mahaveer


Nature truly is raw in tooth and claw! This Spotted Deer fawn was still struggling as the Golden Jackal hauled it into the elephant grass

Elvis isn't dead!!!
Himalayan Bulbuls surely have the funkiest hairstyles of any bird.
