"Kashmir Agama" at Gangoti National Park

Quite a beautiful creature with one of the most adaptive coloration with hues of bright blue, turquoise, emerald green, browns, yellows and orange. Just perfect camouflage for the rocky terrains. Shot taken on the way to Gomukh Glacier.

In flight against the green fields.

Bar Headed Goose

Finally found this small pack of 11-12 Bar Headed Goose. I was looking for them since start of this season but to no avail. Every time I reached the possible locations just to find out that they have left a few days back. But this time I was lucky enough to spot them and enjoyed their company at a very close distance. Information regarding this water-body reached me only on last Monday evening and I was due on that route Tuesday morning. So not taking any chances I visited this place first and no doubt it was Fabulous.

Black Buck

This Black buck was doing his duty to save his family by distracting the Invaders (us). And he seems quite capable of doing that, he usually track you to the show of its beauty and agility and sadly get closer to the hunters quite easily. On the course of spotting these I've learned that some people are still hunting this beautiful creature, but a sign of relief was that most people are in favor of saving them, and let them wander through their fields without disturbing them.

Quite happy after spending some 5 odd hours spotting and being in company of Black bucks, and no, it was not in any Wildlife Reserve, They are all free.

The Sun Bath

Can you spot something in the bushes in this photograph? Not really?

 Watch again, there is something really interesting lying at the borderline of the waterbody and if it is too difficult to find, see this one for a better idea of the things. And before I can change my position for a better pose, there is a quick splash.... and it just disappeared.

The Crocodile having Sun Bath.... again in the wild.

I hope to get a better view next time :)

Closeup Shot of a Snake

This fellow stayed still as I approached closer quite cautiously while another one close to this disappeared somewhere in the bushes. And this was quite close, around 1m away. Well I believe you people must be happy seeing the results.

Snakes in the wild

This usually happens when you look for something specific in the wild and discover that you end up finding something even more interesting. I was looking for some Tortoise photographs but very soon found that the entire area is full with snakes having sunbath. They were scattered here & there and mostly single. But this herd was primarily located as a single big snake which turned out be 5 as the distance reduced. and due to their alertness it was just two clicks and soon 3 of them disappeared. 

Hope you people like it.
