Malabar Giant Squirrel
Indian Gaur

Trip report: It was a sudden decision last night to go for jeep safari in Bhadra reserve forest today morning! After my boat trip in Bhadra reservoir to river tern island last week it was in my mind to have jeep safari some time zin this or next month. Last evening i called Jungle Lodges manager at River tern lodge and enquired whether it is possible to accomodate 3 visitors for safari and got confirmed. We left by 5am from Shimoga ( I was joined by Dr Rathnakar and Nishanth ). We reached by 5.50am and a singing bush chat welcomed us and after coffee went in Jeep for safari. Sighting was good today .Though we missed a photo a sloth bear, many peacocks , wild boars, indian treepie, sambar deer could be spotted apart from the ones picturised here and in picassa web album. It is much more than what we could ask far in a 2 hour safari for 500bucks. Leopards and if you are really lucky tiger can be spotted here. Bhadra is one of project tiger sanctuary in karnataka
