Bandhavgarh Travel Blog
In the heart of Madhya Pradesh, on the rail route to Jabalpur, a little deviation from Katni, is this beautiful Tiger Reserve.
We reached Bandhavgarh in the afternoon of one of the days in March. Enticed by the nature"s call, we threw our bags and got into the gypsy already booked for us, towards Tala. As we approach the last few kilometers to Tala,we found a herd of deer standing statue-like. Deers are the easiest to be spotted and at times we feel nothing great about seeing them. But there is so much to observe in the contours of their body, their walks, their racing, the way they all look together, gazing into the dusky surroundings. It"s a beautiful sight, truly!!
We
strain
our
eyes
gazing
and
ears
are
alert
to
hear
a
call.
The
slightest
of
any
sound
close
to
a
call,
we
park
our
vehicles
and
wait
and
wait
to
have
a
glimpse
of
the
baron.
Keep
looking
through
the
vegetation
and
try
to
relate
images,
absolute
pin-drop
silence
and
all
eyes
in
one
direction.
Suddenly
a
hushed
voice
and
here
we
find
a
tigress
sitting
and
relaxing
under
the
soothing
warmth
and
enjoying
the
pleasant
wind.
Ah!
It
is
so
easy,
spotting
a
tiger
in
Bandhavgarh.
His
benevolence!!
We
could
take
as
many
images
as
we
desired.
The
sight
still
lives
within
me.
A dip into the pool after returning from the jungle and a sip of strong ginger tea, mesmerising!!
Later
part
of
the
evening
was
spent
in
the
projector
room,
watching
films
produced
in
the
jungle.
One
cannot
even
imagine
sitting
at
one"s
work
place,
the
beauty
and
excitement
which
the
jungle
holds.
There
is
so
much
that
happens
inside
the
jungles.
So
much
of
wealth!
The
flickering
shadows
of
candle
over
an
orange
tableware
is
captivating
and
the
aroma
of
freshly
cooked
food
adds
to
the
hunger.
The
staff
at
Tiger
den
makes
sure
that
we
have
real
tasty
and
healthy
food
to
be
up
and
energetic
for
the
next
sights.
Dinner
is
had
listening
to
the
stories
of
co-tourists
and
other
feline
encounters
by
the
guides.
If
you
are
a
nature
lover
you
would
like
to
sit
in
the
portico
of
your
room
after
dinner,
sip
a
coffee
and
look
into
the
darkness
around,
enjoy
the
silence
of
the
jungle
and
short
cries
of
birds,
wonder
what
are
the
animals
doing
and
the
members
you
will
get
to
meet
tomorrow.
A
bite
by
the
mosquito
goes
unnoticed
and
a
humming
by
them
into
your
ears
doesn't
really
bother
you.
People from all over the world seem to travel to this Reserve to get a glimpse of the gigantic baron. It is amazing to see children and old alike already half-covered in blankets inside the open gypsy clad with dew in the wee hours. It is interesting to meet people and know nothing is intrinsic.
It feels good to be among voracious readers and to know that we also contribute to the permeate knowledge, no less than the guides.
One
cannot
break
the
rules
of
jungle
now.
Things
are
quite
in
order,
so
much
good
for
the
beings
we
have
come
to
see.
We
entered
the
jungle
as
early
as
5.30
am.
Never
thought
our
petition
would
be
honoured
with
such
beautiful
sight.
I
had
never
seen
a
tigress
walking
with
her
cubs.
A
magnificent
sighting.
I
felt
my
whole
purpose
of
visiting
Bandhavgarh
was
served.
In
the
afternoon,
we
could
see
birds
and
capture
them
in
their
stunning
poses.
It
is
not
easy
to
get
them
the
way
we
got
to
see
them.
An
Owl
sitting
composed
in
the
trunk
of
the
tree,
carved
so
well.
A
real
piece
of
achitechture!!
Amazing
sight
to
watch
the
Kingfisher
fly
down,
catch
its
prey
and
soar
high.
Such
a
small
being
and
such
wonderful
breath-taking
dive!!
A
Peacock
sitting
right
across,
just
to
be
clicked.
Perfectly
planned
tour
timings,
I
must
say
!
The
wait
in
the
queue
in
the
morning
hours
seem
to
have
paid
us
well.
Out
of
nowhere
a
leopard
suddenly
crossed
the
canal.
As
it
had
already
turned
dark
and
as
the
leopard
was
walking
into
the
jungle,
it
got
camouflaged.
Even
that
was
sheer
luck
as
sighting
a
leopard
is
so
difficult.
Packing up from Bandhavgarh became nostalgic. The care and warmth of the crew at Tiger"s den was equally fascinating like the luring jungle. This trip was one of my memorable and rewarding holidays. But…..will have to work some more to be back with B2, Kalua, Lakshmi (name of tigers). Imagining a view under the moonlight, leaving the legends of jungle by the streams in the canal, lying on dry leaves, doze in the scour, accustomed to their wont, feel pride in their kill and feast on it, to a little more civilized land of software legends!
Bandhavgarh undoubtedly beckons with truly royal beings.
This
note
is
sent
with
a
small
message
that
we
must
take
care
of
nature
as
much
as
possible.
