Beauty of Grasslands
Forget about species extinction, Homo sapiens are responsible for destroying
huge chunks of entire ecosystems.
surely we need to be wiser, if we want to survive on this planet.
we have been like parasites and its high time we develop a symbiotic relationship
with our planet instead of spending billions on searching other planets for life.
We have already lost 50% of our Grassland Habitats
and continue to do so even today.
The beauty of Grassland is just breathtaking,
and supports a lot of endangered species.
here we share some of our favourite grassland images.

Peregrine Preening
On our last trip to the Little rann of kutch,
we had missed the opportunity to see
this beautiful raptor, as our car had got stuck
in the wet desert mud.
This time we kept our distance from the lake
to avoid getting stuck.
This time we got lucky. Raptors (like most birds)
spend a considerable time preening their feathers,
we spent almost 90 minutes watching the Peregrine Falcon
scratching and preening its feathers, before taking off.

We have photographed the Hanuman langur before,
But never seemed to like any of the shots.
On this particular day the light was softened by the clouds
and the juveniles were in a playful mood.
The only problem was the low light and
to add to that the playful mood of the juveniles,
who were always on the move.
Shooting lots of frames was the only way to get a few usable frames.
It is one of our all time favorites, as we feel that it captures
the playful character of the Langurs
