Yala Block 5

13 March 2020

This morning we returned to our preferred Yala Block 5.  It was a little quieter today perhaps due to the extreme heat which really does make a large part of the day fairly sterile when it comes to birding and no doubt the Leopards were also avoiding the heat and thus also us unfortunately.

All that said we had another enjoyable morning in the park.

In the evening we did a little local exploration around Tissamaharama Lake.
