In the silent grasslands of Panna, where the last light of day draped the forest in a mellow gold, I found myself witness to a scene so rare that even the jungle seemed to pause in quiet reverence. The wind moved gently through the tall grasses, carrying with it the faint, earthy scent of the wild—unmistakably alive, yet curiously still.

There,…

They move as a unit, low to the forest floor, rustling through leaf litter. Their pale throats — which give them their name — puff slightly as they call, producing a series of soft, conversational notes that sounds more like a community of dialogue than a bird song.

The morning of the 31st of January broke quietly over the forests of the Judi range, the air still carrying the chill of the departing night. We had set out in search of the famed tigress P151, moving with patience through the waking jungle, every sense attuned to its subtle language. I was in the company of Viswanath and my mentor,…

This Indian Pond Heron flew in from the other side of the lake shore and landed on this huge dead tree trunk. What caught my attention was 2 things – light falling on a distant patch of differently aged grass…

ID: Striped Hyena

A striped hyena at dusk, camouflaged by design. Partially revealed only because she chose to look back. She was never meant to be seen — and yet, here she is. Poised at the threshold between concealment and acknowledgement. Between the world that hides her and the one that watches. The grass holds her stripes. The shadows hold…
