PhotoBlog: Random pics at Bannerghatta (Bangalore)

After publishing pics of Crocodiles, Deers, Turtles and Snake in my blog, I started having nightmares especially from other animals in the park. They voiced their displeasure and warned me of dire consequences if I don't post anything about them. You know how it is, don't you?

So, based on popular animal request, here are some random pics I took at Bannerghatta Biological Park -

Here's a monkey doing what it does best -

Talk of owning the place! -

Not really. I guess he's searching for food. I just found his missus resting on top of a hill -

There's a cunning guy -

Life with full of thorns all around. And yet, he's so composed - 

A small guy I befriended -  

Here's me signing off with my newfound buddy. Ciao -

PhotoBlog: Snakes at Bannerghatta (Bangalore)

This is what I was craving for, when I decided to go to Bannerghatta Biological Park - Snakes. I feel snakes are the most under-rated and under-estimated animals. By the way, I like them on TV and not actually in front of me - for reasons best known to mankind.

And who better than capturing the King himself!

Skin has been shed. But where's the king? Guess he's acting pricey - 

There he is, but where's his head - 

And I have my answer (enlarge the pic to view clearly). Isn't he looking directly at me? - 

OK. He's coming down. He means business - 

Coming down - 

Guess its time to show the hood - 

And he happily went inside his 'home'. No more show guys. King Cobra needs to rest. Ciao! Am very happy to have captured King Cobra (on my camera, that is)..

PhotoBlog: Turtles at Bannerghatta (Bangalore)

Clicking pics of Turtles was fun indeed. And this is why - 

Look at their attitude - Head held high!

Ohh, that's all of them together! 

Close-up -

Climbing the ladder of success the human way (by crushing others) - 

Some know how to have fun (enlarge the pic and check the smile of the turtle)

PhotoBlog: Deers at Bannerghatta (Bangalore)

Deers at Bannerghatta were always together - and is always the case otherwise too. It was not easy for me to take a close-up till one of them actually came near me and posed!

Maybe this guy came to know that I was focusing on him!

One of them had an health issue. So the park authorities came and took him away. Guess how everyone reacted - 

Finally a closeup -

PhotoBlog: Crocodiles at Bannerghatta (Bangalore)

Crocodiles are known to be lazy when their tummy is full. Their full tummy coincided with my decision to visit the park. Throughout the day, they remained at the same place with eyes open with nothing to do at all. 

Oh, what an awesome feeling if you are inherently lazy too!

That's the pose he had throughout the day - 

By the way, it was difficult to take the pic with my camera held high. You can see my shoes in the pic! Talk of amateur photography!

Another view - 

Finally I realized I can take a side view pic. Look at the big guy, all smiles -
