Wildlife at Koorathangudi

Historical significance notwithstanding; the village has plenty more to offer the Nature Lover. Huge open vistas of the skies remind you that there is a world beyond our skycrapers, computers and automobiles.

What strikes you first is the silence... utter, absolute silence. So much so that a normal conversation between two people can be heard a few hundred meters away (No! I'm not exaggerating!) What this also means is that it is that much more difficult to get closer to wildlife in order to get a better picture.

Here are some of the wildlife that I did manage to snap at the Village.
