However, I have another ongoing love affair, with India. If you have never thought of India as a birding destination, I’d urge you to give it a good look. From the alpine habitats of the Himalayas, to deserts, grasslands, wetlands and forests, India has a great deal to offer the birdwatcher. Contact: ashley.boon@btopenworld.com.

India, February 2013. I am camping in the dry-deciduous jungle in eastern Maharashtra, near the geographic heart of India. Nitin hopes to enlarge his collection of photos of Tigers. I am curious to see whatever awaits us in the Nagzira Tiger Reserve. Nitin will stay for a few more days and get his close-ups of Tigers.)

A winding track through dense woodlands takes us to the Telia Lake in the southeast of the Tadoba Tiger Reserve in Maharashtra. There’s a Three-striped Palm Squirrel by the side of the track, while Jungle Bush Quails are running across it in front of our Maruti Gypsy, almost the official safari vehicle of India. He has earned his tip.

He added that the forest ministry, state governments and a separate authority on the management of tiger reserves had agreed to work together to ensure conservation of the endangered animal.

This is the genus of the typical large cats including Lion, Leopard, Jaguar and Tiger. In fact genetic evidence indicates that the Snow Leopard’s closest living relative is the Tiger. We could not believe our fortune, could we really be treated to a Snow Leopard hunt – this was beyond our wildest dreams?

This is the usual game viewing routine in reserves of Africa and India. In India, no one goes at mid-day because of the heat and the law. Pity, it is the sleeping hours and not the hunting (morning/evening), but at least they are not forced to socialise with people all day. What is the right stuff for you?

Originally a hunting term, the Big Five were the most dangerous and prized targets of the great white hunters on safari. However it is now one of the world’s rarest animals after decades of relentless hunting and poaching. The Black Rhino was also a widespread African denizen occurring throughout the continent, even into desert areas.
