Nice blog. You've brought some serious issues to the forefront in your latest post. Apart from your adventures, the cluelessness of the BO, the absence of the Range officer, indicates how seriously the government takes wildlife issues.

Your experience with the woodpecker is unique.

Nice blog. Keep blogging

Passions of the drifting mind

Hi Vinay,

Thanks for the review and comments. You're right ofcourse about the official approach towards frontline field staff in remote areas. Its something that I have seen across India, with the lowest in the hierarchy getting the rawest deal.

Thanks for your encouragement. I will continue to try and present some of these issues without sounding preachy and idealistic. i want people to enjoy what i write and still gain some insight into a field that is virtually unknown for most.

keep reading..

Cheers,

Thanks SM,

appreciate your review and suggestions. I have put a slideshow link to my numerous pictures on flickr. I hope you enjoy them. I dont however want to tinker with the template as I want it to remain simple and with the least of graphics so that people with slow net connections can also view it.. I have first hand experience of being in ultraslow net connections in the northeast where you can sometimes wait for even ten minutes for a page to load! I have also added some new blog links to my favourite blogs Do keep visiting.

Hey dude, you've got some great content, but for a wildlife blog, you need to back that with lots of pics and videos.

Hey Zeon,

thanks for the review and kind words. I understand you like to see wildlife pictures. I have tried to put up a slideshow link to my flickr pictures, but mine isnt a photoblog and neither do I intend putting up pictures taken by others, so I want to keep it simple. Unfortunately mine isn't ever going to be a conventional 'wildlife blog'. Sorry if that disappoints you, but if you want content, I'm your man :)

Cheers,

Dawgmatix
