A Crested Hawk Eagle, Wilpattu National Park, Sri Lanka
I went on a safari in this National Park to see a leopard. There were no leopards and instead I saw this eagle which admittedly I had to carry out some research in order to identify.
This female leopard is special since she has cataract on her left hand eye. As far as I know she didn't had this condition just over a year ago and with her behavior it did not seem the condition of the eye has affected her life a lot. Hopefully she will continue strong and the authorities will take action to cure her if possible. .

This peacock was one of many in Wilpattu National Park, Sri Lanka.
In Sri Lanka we commemorate Children's day on October 1st. So, here are the two latest additions to the Wilpattu leopard family. The "Ranawara pitiya cubs" --------- Ranawara (Senna auriculata) or Tanner's cassia. It is a shrub type with a bright yellow flower. Pitiya is the Sinhalese word meaning "grounds" In Wilpattu there is a area where these shrubs are plentiful and that is where these two cubs usually reside. Hence the name. . . . #leopardtrails #leopardtrailswilpattu #safari #wilpattunationalpark #safariguide #wilpattu #wildlifevideo #wildlife #naturevideos #nature #wildasia #srilankanwildlife #srilanka #cubs #srilankaholiday #naturelovers #jungle #forest #wildplanet #leopard #leopards #leopardsighting #bigcats #leopardcubs #bigcats #bigcatsofinstagram #leopard #leopardlover #wildlife_seekers #wildlife_enthusiasts #wildlife_perfection #leopardconservation (at Leopard Trails Wilpattu) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjJxVGvBhug/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
This female leopard was at the edge of the forest looking at the open grassland and observing how the spotted deer was moving about. Maybe she was thinking about a potential meal or maybe she was just enjoying the events that was unfolding in her territory. . . .

Lazy boy 3000 Similar to us having our favorite couch, leopards too have their preffered branches to sit on. The height from the ground, ease of climbing up and down, the surface area to sit and the comfortness of the surface of the branch may factor into their decision. As safari guides if we know that a leopard frequents a certain branch, we can check that particular branch when we are passing through the area and hopefuly we can get a sighting. . . .

There is a female leopard called the broken-eared female in Wilpattu National Park. This is one of her cubs. There was some light rain before this sighting and there was some rain even when we had the sighting, but the cub did not mind the rain at all. Instead it seemed to enjoy the experience. We got very lucky when it was interested in our windshield wipers. . . .
