INDIA - THE WILD & THE WILDERNESS

Photos I took in Sri Lanka on a recent trip............ 
Painted Stork

Land monitor Lizard - Sri Lankans stop their cars, even on the main highways,
to let their animals cross the road safely! WOW!

Water Monitor - lazy fellow, he was HUGE!

Cattle Egret - so curious, he came to within almost touching distance!

Mr. Elephant - 10 feet away from our jeep!

Little blue Kingfisher - his nest sits below him in the hole in the bank !

Painted Stork and Large Egret.
Can you spot the croc's snout on the right of the painted stork?? 

Male Sambar having a cool dip in a pool of water.
