You guys continue to amaze! Did good karma sprinkle on you from some heavenly realm? To us observers it seems to be so. I wish I had you in my music studio for an hour, Dallas. I've become a ridiculous pianist! I'm in love with the piano and have done virtually nothing else for the past three years.
Your photos are so, so wonderful. I save the blog and go back to see the beautiful animals and birds again and again! I love elephants and love to see the young ones! My Dad was stationed in India during WW11 and brought back little ivory camels and elephants. Guess it wasn’t anything bad in those days. India is a place I have never been but it looks so interesting. Looks like your weather is great…here we are getting snow, snow, snow…enough is enough!!
Oh my goodness! A trip of a lifetime. These photos are amazing. I am so happy you are enjoying every moment. The leopard photo is my favorite - Robin Spielberg
Dear Dallas smith ,
I read your blog on the visit to Mysore wildlife sanctity. It is amazing of course.
I too hail from this part of the country and am very happy to inform you that you know me .
I was one of the guests to your home during 2006 as part of international visitors leadership program.
I would like to know if you are still in India, in which case we could meet. SylendraBabu
Hi Dallas and Susan, Thanks for the excellent blog and wonderful photos of India's superb wildlife.
We met a few weeks ago at the Xandari Pearl Hotel in Marari and intended to exchange emails, however the timing was not quite right. I know that you were so impressed with your safari adventures that you would like to explore Africa, having had 5 fabulous safaris in South Africa I couldn't recommend it highly enough. I have also enjoyed listening to your music and sharing it with my family and friends. I know you would love the music scene in Cape Town. The bird which you cannot identify in the photo is an Oriental Darter, known to Indians as a Snake Bird. This is because it looks like a snake when swimming in the water.
I hope you remember me from our conversations while looking over the Arabian Sea and enjoying a fabulous Keralan breakfast and will get in touch. Kind regards, Chris (Lisney-Smith), St Albans, England.
