Forests , from a long time have been considered as the first temples of divinity, nothing can be more refreshing than a drive through the forests , hearing the sounds of the nature via the winds gushing through the dry leaves, the chirping of the birds, the calls and sounds of the denizens. Nothing can be more pleasing to the eyes and mind than to see a totally different life cycle flourishing in the nature.This set of pictures is just an account of the happy dwelling of the denizens of forests in their home, admiring it to the fullest.....
When we talk of the woods and the denizens ,the first that comes to the mind is monkey , that dwells on the woods for most part of its life, depending totally on it. A langur rests of the branches in the jungles....
A mother langur with its child , in evening light ,waiting for her clan to proceed into the woods....
A different life forms of avians also depends on the woods for their survival. Some dwell on woods, some into it. Owls are known to rest most the day into the tree trunks before proceeding for their nocturnal activities. An owl below seen to be resting in the tree trunk......
The tree trunk here was a nest of this owl, who could be seen regularly resting on the tall structure of the tree trunk.
A greater coucal appeared to be entrapped in the maze of the bamboo twigs, probably finding its way out. life some times takes a hard turn in the forests, but there is where the spirit and the survival of the fittest matters....
A peacock looking at the surrounding ,to search something , in the morning light ,stepping by the woods...
A very intimidating character , Indian gaur or the bison in its habitat in the dry forests of summer season....
Apart from the gaurs , monkeys and birds, the forests are found to be inhabited by myriad animals like cheetals, sambars, mongoose , monitor lizards and list goes on and on....
There also are carnivores feeding on the smaller animals like jackals, panthers, and tigers who basically are at the top of the food chain...
A jackal below , looking for some signs of prey in the bushes..
A predator that is mostly known for the use of the trees to rest, hide preys, and dwell is the leopard or the panther.Since the leopard shares its space with a more powerful predator like a tiger, it hides its prey on the
trees to protect it. Also it dwells high up to avoid confrontations...
A leopard, with its kill (top left corner) in the woods....
And the god of the forests as they say is the tiger. The life line of the jungles and the most revered cat of the forests .
A tiger in its habitat in bandhavgarh forests in central India.
The forest life cycle also depends on one of the tertiary consumers, who feed on the aftermath, who are also known to keep the jungles clean. Above tigers , of there is some one in the food chain are these, the vultures.
In some mysterious ways , the forests never seem to be at a standpoint ,at every instant a thousand things keep happening into them. A worlds begins there, a worlds ends. Change and development always continues there, which is probably the most important lesson the woods offer us.... in physical terms, we move though them, but deeply within its the other way round, they move through us ,through our hearts.. Always....
