The " Curry Country ", is the trip which most travel far for me for Bird Photography, 1st we still worry about the local food but end out we are love it, special the local curry and the Kingfisher beer. We spend lot of time to plan this trip for choosier the good agent, reason is we need to find good response, responsible and know what we want as Bird Photographer.
New Delhi is the capital city of India, also it is one of the fastest growing cities in the world and has a total population of nearing three hundred thousand residents. New Delhi is one of the world’s top global cities. Also New Delhi is the most expensive city in India for expatriates in terms of cost of living. New Delhi is known for its wide, tree-lined boulevards and is home to numerous national institutions, museums and landmarks.
These places have lot of beautiful landscape and also the colder place during our trip.
Day 1, Penang > Kuala Lumpur > New Delhi
Mostly whole day in Airport/Flight and arrive at New Delhi about Local Time 9:30pm (India is early 2.5 hours) a tire day, we met the local agent and direct transfer to hotel without dinner, the hotel is near to the air port, 1st day all of us is well sleep.
Day 2, New Delhi to Corbett National Park
Morning after breakfast we need drive to Corbett National Park for about 260 km. It take us about 8 hours on the road, this 8 hours will not feel tire for us but have good experience, from the road seeing, we can see and feel how the local people life style and how their stay, the environmentally will be bit dirty after leave New Delhi city.
We find one interest habit in India, the driver here when driving is very like to press the car horn, the horn is very loud, they can horn from the beginning until end, reason the traffic there is bit mess up.
We see lot of Black Kate in new Delhi, all of them is round from at the sky for searching the food.
We reach at out side Corbett National Park, today we will stay here, only entry to the Park tomorrow afternoon. Today our bird photography begin at nearby resort.

Day 3,4 and 5, Jim Corbett National Park
Named after the hunter and conservationist Jim Corbett who played a key role in its establishment—is the oldest national park in India. The park was established in 1936 as Hailey National Park. Situated in Nainital district of Uttarakhand the park acts as a protected area for the critically endangered Bengal tiger of India, the secure survival of which is the main objective of Project Tiger, an Indian wildlife protection initiative. You can find 50 species of mammals, 580 bird species and 25 reptile species in the Park.
The Jim Corbett National Park is a haven for the adventure seekers and wildlife adventure lovers alike. Corbett National Park is India's first national park which comprises 520.8 km2. area of hills, riverine belts, marshy depressions, grass lands and large lake. The elevation ranges from 1,300 feet (400 m) to 4,000 feet (1,200 m). Winter nights in Corbett national park are cold but the days are bright and sunny.
The next few days we transfer to 4x4 wheel car and stay overnight inside the National park, most of time we at safari drive inside the jungle trail and one elephant ride during the stay at Corbett, the elephant ride is go inside the deep jungle without trail to find the Tiger, unfortunately we only manage to see the Tiger leave over food and the “ output “, this is the good experience and unforgettable trip for me.
