Back after a wonderful holiday trekking in a cloud forest. The Western Ghats, also known as the Sahyadri range, is one of the few environmental hotspots in the world, containing tremendous biodiversity. Since it was the end of the monsoon season, there were not many wild flowers, but we saw many birds and butterflies. The picture above shows the Southern Birdwing, the largest butterfly in India.

Bracket fungus on a piece of fallen wood. There were leeches on the moist ground.
