Chitwan National Park

Chitwan National Park (Inscribed)

Chitwan National Park by Carlo Sarion

I enjoyed three very wet days in chitwan national park this past summer. The wildlife was most fascinating. While riding on an elephant through the 5 meter tall grass in search of the local rhino with an expert mahout, I offered my palm to a beautiful little butterfly that had followed us for some little way. To my delight it landed in my palm and remained there, quite calmly, for at least a minute. We saw kingfishers and gharials as well, but as it was monsoon season not much else was apparent. I shall never forget the blessing bestowed upon me by a small blue butterfly...Enjoy!
