Bannerghatta Park
also looking out for lions
October 27, 2007
To see some of India's famouse wildlife we board a bus for a ride through the park.
(not featuring cows, dogs, chicken, sheep and other street-life)
It seems I'm the only foreigner...?
The driver keeps an eye out...
...for sudden roadblocks.
a tiger peeking up through the grass
looks like he spotted us
"the eye of the tiger"
or maybe after something else
hush....he's walking right by us

while passing through a fenced-in area, we spot a white tiger
a lion
the bus comes back, and we head to the zoo
a snake sleeps in the sun
while little white mice run about in a box
