Strangely enough Amboseli National Park is one place where we did not spot many African Lions, except for a pride that we saw on day one of our visit. While we searched the length and breath of the park, we did not see another pride or lone males. We made one last attempt to check […]

Tigers sun bathing in Tadoba
As my safari vehicle drove into Tadoba National Park for one last time on this trip, I couldn’t help but replay in my mind, all the fantastic sightings that Matt and I had been blessed with, over the days that we had been here. Matt’s first Tiger sighting happened in the Junone buffer zone. We […]
Suckling Zebra calf, Spur Fowl, Bustard, Lion and more at Amboseli
While the Zebra calf suckling its mother, that we sighted at the Amboseli National Parkwas the highlight of this post, this safari had other wonderful photography moments that we cherished. One such moment was when we spotted the Yellow-throated Spurfowl. With its gorgeous banded eyes and yellow throat, it made for a beautiful capture. The […]

Grey Crowned Cranes in Amboseli National Park
On an evening game drive in Amboseli National Park, we saw a pair of Grey Crowned Cranes foraging close to the road and we stopped to get a picture. I waited till the famous Crown was perfectly spread by the wind and took a few pictures. I timed a capture when the Grey Crowned Crane […]
Sibling Play in Tadoba
Watching Choti Tara, one of the much sought after Tigress in Tadoba National Park, play with her cubs would have brought tears of joys to any die hard wildlife enthusiast. Soon it reached a point where the Tigress could not be at the receiving end of her sons teeth and claws and she growled at […]
