The Vegetation |
The thick vegetation of the Periyar forest was occasionally charecterised by colors that blended with the deep blue sky to such an extent that the onlooker would be completely mesmerised by its vision. This was one such occasion. |
Giant Tree |
The dense vegetation of the periyar forest is ideal for the numerous birds and animals that dwell here. This picture taken from the bottom of a tree displays an example of the plant life that exists here. | Barren Tree |
In contrast to the thick dense trees, one can also see such barren trees birched in the middle of the river. They provide excellent perching place for the herons and the coromanders. |
The Periyar river is surrounded by tall mountians. There have been numerous occasions when elephants have been spotted on top of these land masses. One such view is captured here minus the elephants. | The Hills of Periyar |
