点评:At the very end of 2024 did Yala National Park full day tour with Eddy Anurada.
Eddy not only arranged a transfer from our hotel to Yala and the park ranger with Hilux 4WD, but also personally picked us up at 4 AM. An early start and the following experience was definitely worth it!
A heartfelt thank you to Eddy and the ranger! For the fabulous day, the incredible hospitality, safe driving and the knowledge they shared with us! All the birds, mammals and reptails!
Full day trip was absolutely brilliant! We all thoroughly enjoyed this day. Eddy's knowledge about NP is genius. Plenty of different bird species including dozens of Malabar Pied-Hornbill, Chestnut-headed bee-eaters, Brown fish owl. Elephants at different places, Axis Spotted and Sambur Deers, several species of mongoose, Sri Lankan jackals, crocodiles at different places and other reptile species.
And leopard...
We initially agreed that we would search for one of Yala's stars - the leopard - on our own. Not chase after what someone else has found. Eddy and ranger worked really hard to get our own leopard. The tandem of Eddie and the ranger worked very harmoniously! It was obvious that Eddie is very familiar with both the geography of the park and the habits and behavior of leopards. Despite all efforts, sunset was approaching, but no leopard... And then!!! As we were heading towards the exit - BINGO!!!
LEOPARD!!!
Just less than 15 meters from our 4WD! Initially walking parallel to the car, and then turned and approached right towards us!
翻译:2024 年末,与 Eddy Anurada 一起进行了亚拉国家公园全日游。
Eddy 不仅安排了从我们酒店到亚拉和公园管理员的 Hilux 四驱车接送,还在凌晨 4 点亲自接我们。早早出发和接下来的体验绝对值得!
衷心感谢 Eddy 和护林员!感谢他们为我们带来的美妙一天、热情好客、安全驾驶以及与我们分享的知识!所有的鸟类、哺乳动物和爬行动物!
全日游绝对精彩!我们都非常享受这一天。Eddy 对 NP 的了解是天才。有很多不同的鸟类,包括数十只马拉巴尔斑犀鸟、栗头蜂虎、棕鱼鸮。不同地方的大象、斑鹿和水鹿、几种猫鼬、斯里兰卡豺、不同地方的鳄鱼和其他爬行动物。
还有豹子……
我们最初同意自己寻找亚拉的明星之一——豹子。而不是去追寻别人找到的东西。Eddy 和护林员非常努力才找到我们自己的豹子。Eddie 和护林员的配合非常默契!很明显,Eddie 非常熟悉公园的地理环境以及豹子的习性和行为。尽管我们竭尽全力,但日落即将来临,却没有看到豹子……然后!!!当我们正朝着出口走去时——BINGO!!!
豹子!!!
离我们的四轮驱动车不到 15 米!起初它与汽车平行行走,然后转身朝我们走来!
