To all #Biryani and Pilaf lovers, good news....
The wait for the best quality #Basmati #Rice is almost over!
Real hard work begins soon at #BrarBrothers Farms at #Puranpur in #Pilibhit area of #Terai #UttarPradesh to harvest Basmati, the King of Rice!
By the way, a comfortable stay too.

This 'Machan' at #PilibhitTigerReserve is not a lookout for #Tigers but serves as an observation post to detect forest-fires.
A romantic getaway near the #BrarBrothers farms at #Puranpur in the #Pilibhit district of #Terai region of #UttarPradesh #India
The #ShardaCanal flows along the road.
The entry to the forest is restricted to protect the #Wildlife which includes #Leopards #Pythons #Bears #Deers #Crocodiles etc.
A Leopard may have disappointed us by appearing late evening (too dark for #photography) but this #Tiger delighted us by marking its presence early in the morning.
It raises it's tail to urinate to mark it's territory.
This is the restricted #PilibhitTigerReserve (we had entry permit) & close to #BrarBrothers farm at #Puranpur in the #Pilibhit district of #Terai #UttarPradesh #India

Images of Rural #India
Seeing hundreds of these 'Baya Weaver #Bird (Weaver #Finches or Bishop #Birds) Nests' on way from #BrarBrothers farm at #Puranpur in #Pilibhit district of #UttarPradesh to #NanakMatta #Gurudwara in #Uttrakhand ( #Sikh #religion #ReligiousDestination #Sikhism )
The Gobind Sagar Reservoir, fed by River #Sharda can be seen in the background.
These birds are found in such water bodies from North #Africa to #SouthEastAsia
Few are as lucky as me, to be able to escape the monotonous city life on weekdays and to spend quality time in the villages of #India
Once again an opportunity came knocking at my door.
So, leaving #Delhi #NewDelhi, here I am on way to #BrarBrothers farms at #Puranpur in #Pilibhit district of #Terai region of #UttarPradesh
The first rural (and unique) sight is this Wheat Straw (turi) Storage Cones dotting the landscape.
Monuments of Rural India.
