Lots of Clouds, but no Goats
As Sandesh puts it, We are in the land of the cloud goats. Lots of clouds but no goats.
We really did not get the huge groups that we were hoping to get. We did manage to get a small group and the males were getting excited smelling the females urine, but that's about it. Sometime now they gather in huge groups and then the fights break out between the males etc. We suspect we are early for this event (maybe because of delayed monsoons).
Anyway we decided to move on and landed back in Valparai now. We have messengers there in Munnar, who will call us the min these huge groups gather. Let's see what Valparai holds in the next few days.
Also I finally have a decent set of Rain coat, rain pants and rain boots. So I can almost stay out in the field in heavy rain all day and not get wet or get bothered by leeches. :)
