Nepal

A short trip to Kathmandu and Chitwan National Park in January.

The weather was very "misty" (foggy!) until lunchtime, which didn't help with wildlife viewing.
I did , however, see two jungle cats. One of these was right by my cabin... and I initially mistook it for an ordinary "moggy".
There was plenty of evidence of both tiger and sloth bear ... but we didn't see either.
