Sri Lanka – Island Endemics of the Indian Ocean
Sri Lanka may be small in size, but it's remarkably rich in biodiversity! As an island separated from the Indian mainland, it has developed a distinct avifauna, with over 30 endemic bird species and a wide array of South Asian specialties. Here are some of my pictures taken during my last Photography tour in this superb country.
