TIGER AT A WATERHOLE

[skeetshot]

These pictures were taken during a visit to the Taroba National Park this summer. As you can see, the tiger has obviously fed, and oblivious to the highly alarmed Sambar, took a short dip and went back into the jungle.

Brilliant pics!

Any chance of a higher resolution copy suitable for use as a desktop background?

The forum doesnt accept pictures more than 256 Kpixels so I have to change the resolution in order to post them. maybe I am doing something wrong

We need to ask Explorer to see what the best way to send a high resolution photo is.

Interesting !! The elephant I posted was seen near Kaladungi, which is where Jim Corbett used to live. His house is now a museum.

I am trying to convince a friend to to visit the areas Jim Corbett hunted with me.

I will most probably end up with a photo group on my own,and make a side trip.

Hopefully next year,working on dates now.

Google earth is fantastic;as you can read along and then get a real sense of the distances covered between villages in the book.

Let me know. I have a house above Kaladungi, approx 25 kms up on the road to Nainital, (look up Mongoli on Google Earth and scan 2 kms North Eat from there, the house with the blue roof is mine ). We have lots of leopards, Barking Deer (Muntjac), Himalayan Tahr, Kaleej Pheasant, Red Jungle Fowl and a wealth of bird life. My house is generally empty and all Blaser Buds are welcome.

You're doing nothing wrong, it's the board setting that was a little wrong

Now there's no limit on the picture size but they will now be shown as thumbnails in a post, you can then click on the thumbnails and view the full size of the picture

I will keep you in the loop as plans progress.

Looking for your house,is it near Sariyatal? The google photo's posted for the area between Kaladhungi and Nainital are stunning landscapes.

You indeed have a beautiful country....

No, its near KhurpaTal. Tal means lake and there are many lakes at this high altitude, Nainital, SardiyaTal, KhurpaTal, NaukuchiyaTal, BhimTal etc

We are at 29° 21' 33.96" N and 79° 23'53.72" E. That is our place.
