In reply to:

So the scene of wetlands with the lovely dog (what a great picture of one's dog BTW - worth framing) is the same wetlands as the other photos further up. I note there are stone steps near the dog. Is one of the hotels or palaces near the stone steps or is it a boat landing of some sort?





NitroX,

The wetlands picture with the dalmation are the same wetlands as the pictures further up. The stone steps lead down to the lake and are used for boating. The heritage hotel is about a 150 yards south.

When waterfowl hunting was permitted birds were shot at these wetlands during the morning & evening flight. No hides were used, one just used the natural cover. Last month, we watched 362 ducks (pintail, teals, porchards, nuktas, widgeon, shovelers etc) fly overhead and land in the wetland during the evening flight. What a beautiful sight..
No nasties in these wetlands today but in the old days there were plenty of crocodiles.

These crocodiles were shot in March, 1940 in a lake a few miles from these wetlands.
