The grey-backed shrike (Lanius tephronotus) is a species of bird in the family Laniidae. It is found in Bangladesh, India (Uttarakhand), Nepal, Bhutan, China and Yunnan.

Among the shrikes, they breed at the highest altitude. They are partial migrants, with some populations moving south in winter. They breed in summer from late May to early July. The nest is built in a bush and about 3 to 5 eggs are laid. The eggs are incubated by the female alone and incubation is begun even before the complete clutch is laid. The chicks hatch after 15–18 days and are taken care of by both the parents until the fledge after about two weeks.

Today is about a few intimate moments spent with the Vulnerable Indian leopard - Panthera pardus fusca - in the beautiful Khursapar range of the Pench National Park which is set in a flourishing teak jungle, home to various wildlife species, including tigers and dhole. Pench National Park is a spectacular natural reserve, with typical teak jungles common to central India, offering a quiet and secluded game viewing experience.

We first spotted this magnificent male as he quietly crossed the track well in front of us. His nose was pointed towards us and to our right. Our guide and driver both said he will come sit amongst the rocks on our right and a few minutes later there he was.

She is called the Enchantress of Tadoba and the Queen of Tadoba! Born to Leela and Hill Top in Pandharpauni, Maya has blossomed from a cub to a princess and finally a Queen whose glory surpasses the boundaries of the Tadoba National Park. Maya lost her mother Leela very early to snake bite but she has grown up to take up her mother’s throne and since then expanded it to cover the largest territory in the national park.
