This week's Sunday morning was towards Navalur. First we go into the village, then go along the lake embankment and take the 6-km straight road. The road cuts through black soil fields, it's peaceful barring three or four bikes or cars at the max. This time wanted to do a short ride meaning not exceeding 20 km. The morning air was misty and cool. Around the 10th kilometer we stopped for a short break. We took a few pictures in the dim light. We were about to restart when Pushpa heard and saw a couple of deer sparring. We could hear their horns clash and it was such a lovely sight. We realized they weren't deer but blackbucks. The handsome creatures clashed several times.. they seemed to be playful youngsters. We must've watched them five minutes before they stopped their game and then suddenly ran deeper into the fields.
During our earlier rides around Navalur we had seen deer, peacocks, owls and a rat snake. Wild life sightings have made our mornings, and those rides remain memorable.
One more interesting thing here was the duck-shaped tree.
