Uttarakhand: Winged Beauties
After a long time I was headed up north on some work and decided to take some timeoff on the way back . Spoke to few people at Dehradun and they suggested a nature reserve Jaberkhet outskirts of Landour. So from Roorkee/Hardiwar headed to this amazing reserve. There was a small cafe outside it run by a mum/daughter is where I stayed and in the evening and morning went for treks into the reserve. It was very cold (December) and google showed it as minus 2 in the morning so with layers of clothes and trekking shoes walked around in search of winged beauties. The views of mountains and the winter sun was just worth all the effort , however winged beauties were few because of chill in the air.. Here are some of them .. From there I headed in search of history at RIMC,IMA where dad had studied and FRI where my great great grandfather and great grandfather had studied.. Some winged beauties from those campuses More here
