Dombagaskanda (Bodinagala) - Ingiriya

A Haritha Diyatha one-day field exploration trip to the Dombagaskanda forest (Bodinagala), Ingiriya. The birding session was interupted by rain.
The members took part in a "shramadana" (campaign of providing voluntary labour), organized by the "dayaka saba"  of the BODINAGALA "aranya senasana" (Buddhist forest monastry), in passing a heap of bricks up the mountain, for a proposed new construction at the monastry.

passing bricks up the mountain
...also carring bricks up ....











 
steps that go up ...
 
into tha forest ....


 
trailling up ...
 
descending down

 
walking down along the road

A Bird nest on an embankment
