Daily photos 3rd year
At the Daily Gallery one picture, preferably taken that day; is shared with others. While that is difficult to follow (shooting everyday) I have been putting up a picture everyday and this is my THIRD year. It's been an enjoyable time viewing pictures of other members and learning new techniques and customs from different places. I think this is the best way to travel to places while sitting at home, and also making friends on the way! It has been a pleasure sharing my pictures and I thank all of you for taking the time to comment on my pictures.

Quail at Ranthambhore National Park
Very difficult to spot and photograph, I was lucky to get a few shots.
During my trip to Ranthmbhore for NGO work, we managed two trips to the park. Ranthambore National Park is in Sawai Madhopur District of Rajasthan state. The park covers an area of Approximately 400 sq Km and is famous for Tigers, Panthers, Sloth bears and other animals plus a large variety of birds.
This is the link to Tiger Watch, the NGO I work for:

<span style="color:yellow">Gray langurs</span> <br> Khem Vilas, Ranthambhore
Gray langurs are large and fairly terrestrial, inhabiting forest, open lightly wooded habitats, and urban areas on the Indian subcontinent. Langurs mostly walk quadrupedally and spend half their time on and the ground and the other half in the trees.[7] They will also make bipedal hops, climbing and descending supports with the body upright, and leaps. Langurs can leap 3.7-4.6 m (12.0-15.0 ft) horizontally and 10.7-12.2 m (35-40 ft) in descending.

Khem Vilas: At Ranthambhore, we stayed at Khem Vilas, a beautiful jungle camp with three types of accommodations nestled in open grasslands with small water bodies, spread over an area of 10 acres. <br>
