Gentle giants of the jungle.

Elephants are the gentle giants of the jungle. On my last trip to Bandipur I met this amazing flock of female elephants taking care of the baby in the family.

It sure was incredible to see this tigress having an evening bath and swim. The Royal Bengal tiger has actually increased in numbers due to all the hard work to protect it. This incredible animal ranks among the biggest wild cats alive today. It’s the National animal of India and Bangladesh.

I had a furry visitor in my garden.

one morning I had a furry visitor in my garden…..

at first I thought it was one of my neighbors dogs

but as soon as it turned I realized it was a fox

it was moving around the garden like it owned it so I guess it has been here many times before

it was so pretty and it didn’t notice me behind the glass door

I got a 15 minute view of my furry friend and then I had to let myself be known since I don’t want it here at all (We’ve got a couple of cats in the family) But it sure was nice to see a healthy Swedish fox up close.
