Pilibhit Nature Outing

Eyes by Rupali G.

   

A very unique ecosystem of Pilibhit Tiger Reserve has a variety of sightings to be offered to a nature lover. We enjoyed every bit of it. There was a little problem at the beginning, though. It took lot of time to get into the safari vehicle because of mismanagement from the other end. We feel like noting one thing here that, all tourist must behave well and as per the guidelines of the forest department. Having some 'Tu Tu Main Main' with some irresponsible tourists we continued with our safari and forest observation and that set our mood back to normal. Later, this forest revealed its natural beauty to us and all went well in this Terai Arc region.

We also did some sightseeing at Lucknow including Bada Immamwada. Since we keep on looking for some green areas to roam around. So, we spent our morning at Kukrail Park where people generally come for walking, jogging and for picnic. We observed good amount of birds there as well.
