Yesterday we arrived at the Jetwings Yala resort which is pretty classy and right among the sand dunes but the beach is not so classy and you have to share it with elephants. Speaking of which last night..one went on a rampage in the hotel car park and damaged a car.
Lunch in the resort dining room.
Jetwings Yala from the beach.
Not an ideal swimming beach.
We spent the afternoon looking for leopards but no success.
Plenty of wild boar but not very cooperatively about posing.
Water buffalo know the best place on a hot afternoon.
Monkeys and elephants
and a Sambar deer relaxing but it is really a twitchers paradise and we saw plenty.of birds
Wading birds
Pretty red legs
A brightly coloured little bird
Bill was more interested in the spectacular rock formations.

| Another solitary elephant. |
After we returned from the game drive there was a thunderstorm and heavy rain.
That is a very cute bird. Would be good to appliqué.
ReplyDeleteNature and the animals are wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThat green bird is beautiful! Too bad you didn't see leopards, but you saw lots of other amazing wildlife.
