January 2009, Jim Corbett National Park.

Over the past 10 days I visited two well known national parks in northern India, the Jim Corbett National Park in the state of Uttarakhand and the Kaladeo National Park (otherwise well known as the Bharatpur Bird Sanctuary) in the state of Rajasthan. I got to see a great variety of wildlife so for the next couple of weeks you might see only photos of wildlife here interspersed with the odd landscape and perhaps a passing glimpse of Delhi which was my base. Hope you will find this small glimpse of India’s vast natural heritage filtered through my eyes interesting.
