Wildlife Wednesday

~ Back from the Forest ~


The Soins - Mandip, Anita, Himali and Himraj - and Ibex Knight Shumeet Banerji, returned from Ranthambore last night.








The forest is dotted with Chhattris from a lost age. A forest peers over it, as if to protect those that roam wild, from the whims of the weather. This weekend, they circled the Padam Talab, where they found the Machhli tigress cooling off in the late afternoon heat.












Beside a variety of birdlife, such as the Golden Oriole, they witnessed a story in the wild: a deer mating another, a peacock and a sambar chatting, an egret and a wild boar, and even a hare and a jackal, all in symbiosis.











They stayed at Sher Bagh, a set for the Far pavilions, a portal back into the British Raj, replete with leather-bound books, old hunting hats, binoculars and brass straps.
