We were on a family vacation In Jan 2018 to Bentota and Nuwara Eliya. I managed to squeeze in some birding. The best highlight of the trip was a visit to the Horton plains. Horton plains have preserved the original flora and fauna of Sri Lanka. Here are a few shots from Horton Plains
A Sri Lanka White-eye
Sambar Deer
The endemic purple faced monkey which is only available at the plains
Bar winged flycatcher shrike
The Sri-Lankan jungle fowl, the national bird of Sri Lanka
A yellow eared bulbul an endemic of Sri Lanka
An emerald dove on way to Nuwara Eliya.
A white throated kingfisher shot at Bentota.
