You had a lovely encounter with Agasthya at Bandipur during your visit. I had one pic of him taken 2 years back during my visit to bandipr and when i was coming out of the park, it had gotten dark and it was my pre dslr days, so could manage only this with my kodak z612 superzoom back then. Agasthya - Bandipur - GLOWING EYES  And here are some of the various moods of the tiger cub we have named circuit for his eccentric ways at Tadoba which we have captured over the last few months. Enjoy this visual feast :                              These photographs represent the consolidated luck that we had with these Tiger cubs (Circuit and his 3 siblings) over the last few months. Not all the pics are by me. Copyright respective photographers as indicated. You will find some of these pics in various other forum posts that I have already made on the other threads on Tadoba. Reposting them to have a consolidated post of their growth over the last few months here. Please go through some of my albums on facebook here Welcome to Facebook for more of them and their ways. These guys are real posers and they have enthralled hoards of wildlife crazy enthusiasts from all over the country this monsoons. It is my pleasure to deliver their message to all of you through this forum. With the end of September and beginning of october, i will be shifting my energies towards my other home - Pench Tiger reserve and continue bringing you these natural history images from our forests. This travelogue is my goodbye to Tadoba tiger reserve for the next few months in all probability. Barring the new tiger cubs - the mobile grab shot of whom I have already posted, I have been successful in photographically documenting and presenting before you the various moods of over 30 tigers from this reserve over the last couple of months. I must thank the entire community for their wonderful responses to these posts of mine. regards, Dr. A Ghosh 09960332228 | |||

| BHPian  | Whenever I visit any forest, I get to see elephants , Deer and Gaur ( once in Bandipur, just saw deer, nothing else ) . But when you go doc, you get to see all the tigers in there  How do you do that ? and most important , how do you make them pose for you ? |

| Lovely pics, doc specially of the cubs. These are real beauties of the world which WE are slowly but seriously wiping out due to our greed. Quote:
Also, I would request all TBHPians to be part of save the tiger project. Being supporting the project, I am trying to garner as much support as I can. Fantastic travelogue and an equally fantastic overview. I just love Tigers (though never seen one). Thanks everybody for posting your various tiger sightings. | |

You guys need to make a trip to Kaziranga in Assam. Its truly an experience out of this world. Esp the Elephant ride into the sanctuary at 5 am in the morning. You will come upon Rhino who are still asleep. And its really cold that time with the mist hitting your face and the elephant grass growing right upto the hieght of the elephant you are sitting on. Please bear in mind that the park is only open from November to March (about 5-6 months in a year). Sorry for going OT but i thought since a lot of wildlife enthusiats visit this thread, it will be good info for all of you. I have been going there every year I go back to assam to visit my folks. | |

 . Though i did not see any tourists actually taking the ride, there is a structure for tourists to mount the elephants and a board indicating the rates. See pics below.   Not OT at all! Kaziranga is one of the destinations on my wish list. Its just about arranging the finances and leaves Last edited by ExtremeTorque : 4th October 2010 at 14:32. | |

| Add on... Hey Abheekda, those were some marvelous collection you got! thanks for sharing. Sorry, I was little off beat for a while. Getting too busy with work and wanted to have some relaxing time without worrying about anything at all. Later than never, I would like a to add on a few more clicks from my lens. One more pic of the DAD...  The Circuit Show... As we were trying to get the shots of the cubs, Circuit, the most photoholic cub of the all, decided to walk into us for a photo-session!  Doc, do you remember the the one liner of Bijoy "Yeh Circuit pichle janam me zaroor Bollywood Hero raha hoga!" He decided to to sit just in the middle of all gypsies, so that everybody gets a good angle of him!  He started to give his ultra-natural nervous-less pose!  His sister decides to join him, she is not so comfortable with cameras so she took her sit little back.  Circuit knows it very well, photographers are getting bored of the same shot, so he decided to stand up and went to the bush.  Oh, that's him. standing tall in the bush.  Here he came again, giving a cold stare to another vehicle.  Showing his aggression (photo courtesy: Dr. Abheek Ghosh)  Calmed down  Calling off the show. Show over go back, leave us alone...  Cheers! Hriday |
