Neelgai with egret

neelgai with egret at velavadar

A female neelgai (bluebull) with egret, a common scene at Velavadar. Male neelgais are blueish black and bigger hence their name bluebull or neel(blue) gai(cow), also the largest antelope in India. Although in velavadar they are protected there are other places where they still sometimes are considered pest destroying crop and usually farmers have licenses to kill them.

  1. This place is called velavadar and close the ahmedabad. if you plan to visit Gir you can combine velavadar with it.

  2. Have u been to Rann of Kutch to picture the wild ass…….is there any other animal of interest to b found there
