Early morning; woodpecker has already started working

Babu, the oldest guide in Dandeli Forest dept leads our way



Cutting bamboo sticks for support


Bamboos had flowered in the recent past, and now they rot and fall



Slippery slope



Didn't want to wet feet or dare to jump on rocks








Last stretch before Nagzira Falls







Nagzira Falls

Checking shoes for leeches






Yes, leeches were aplenty, and there was bloodshed


Breakfast


A bird's nest



A tall and wide tree on the way










Roots to hang on












The Falls from a distance








Nagzira viewing tower on the road

At the Dandeli Timber Depot to watch hornbills. Could not click photos as they flew away
