It’s that time of the year when I usually make a trip to the North or the North East. Last year it was Bharatpur, where I had a great time photographing the aquatic birds. I was not sure where to go this year. That’s when things fell into place to travel to Mizoram along with Yathin and Pratap Singh. The dates were decided as 9 to 17 Dec 2006.

The below links gives detailed information about the trip:

• Dampa Tiger Reserve - 09 to 12 December 2006
• Phawngpui (Blue Mountain) National Park - 13 to 16 December 2006
• Species list from Mizoram Trip
• Maps of Mizoram
• Travel Tips to Mizoram
• Trip Report from Yathin S K
• All images from the Trip can be viewed here

I have written a brief article on the challenges of photographing birds in the North East. You can read it here.
