In Time

   Sorry for the delay. This trip, from the start till the end had lot of surprises for us and, luckily our jeep was always in time to witness those. With the animals pulling on a new coat of fur (feathers for birds) to protect themselves from the stinging cold,looked all the more better. Not too happy with the first safari as we hardly found anything but maybe, more than that I wasnt happy with he cold. Well the temp was in single digit.

   But on the second one we were in time to hear a langoor calling out to alert his kin and the others about a leopard's presence which soon crossed the road,with the satisfaction of finding one the cold vanished. On the second safari we were almost in time to find a Tiger stride off with its pride and never even taking our notice,and before it we were again in time to spot a barsingha whose numbers were the major concern until kanha was declared as a national park.  All the credits of being in time goes to our guides.
