Kabini - pride of India

Visited Kabini River Lodge this weekend (23 & 24th Jan 2016) and I can say, it is one of the best in India.   Kabini is a visual treat, a pradise for nature lovers, and it is a place one can find wild animals face to face... Sambars, Elephants, Gaurs, wild boars, leopards, tigers, spotted deers, and many more. Birds are plenty...The resorvoir is surrounded by Bandipur, Nagarhole, Mudhumalai and this Kabini is one of the last protected habitats for endangered species like Elephants and Tigers, I pray and would like to see this place as prestine as now in future also, so that our next generations can see the wild animals in their natural surroundings..

Also the Kabini River Lodge is one of the best maintained Resorts, though out of reach of common man, the location and the service is unparallel. Particularly for Bird Watchers, this resorts is a heaven.. Some of the birds are Magpie Robin,  Crow Pheasant, Coppersmith Barbet, White-Cheeked Barbet, Koel,  Red-whiskered Bulbul, Brahminy Kite, White-browed wagtail, Little Egret, Purple-rumped Sunbird, Little Cormorant, Large  Cormorant are easy sight. Many varities of butterfiles, big bats.. Inside the Lodge one tree holds more than thousand of Indian Flying fox.. we could spot many mongoose and otters in the side banks...
