Bannerghatta Zoo




After an exciting safari, we were taken back to the gate of the Bannerghatta zoo. We moved inside. A white peacock welcomed us in the first exhibit.Those nursery students whom i mentioned before were standing around  the exhibit. I managed to move one kid in front of me saying "Move away from the cage or else it will bite you". The scared boy ran away from the front of my lens.The sunlight was causing glare in my images and I couldn't us my lens hood.So my cousin had to use his hand to prevent glare in front of some cages.
Then we moved in to some other small exhibits that were having birds like dove, owl and civet.
After taking a lot of shots , I felt like my cousin was starting to loose his patience. So we moved further to see the other exhibits.

One of the exhibits was adopted by Cricket Legend ,Shri Anil Kumble




The leopard is probably the only big cat inside the zoo. May be because that leopards needs fully closed exhibits or else, they may use the trees as ladders to get out . The leopard exhibit is the most impressive of the zoo.











Then we saw star tortoise, Mugger crocodile , Gharial  , Spotted deer , Indian gazelle, barking deer , a zebra, king cobra ,Indian elephant,various birds,macaques and many other small & large animals. The photographs of various animals in the Bannerghatta zoo are shown below.







There is a small bakery and a park available inside the zoo.

After spending much time in the zoo, we moved out of the zoo.At that time the gate man told us about a butterfly park nearby. It was within walking distance from the zoo. So we moved to explore our last destination in Bannerghatta.............
