'The dew on the flowers has come with the dawn ...', Avissawella, Sri Lanka.

Dawn at Mahiyangana, Sri Lanka.

Dawn at Mahiyangana.

The 'Mahout' arriving in the morning to start the day's work.

The elephant is so human. Watch video of an elephant in the morning after a night's rest. Note how the Mahout clears the ground and gets the elephant to lie down. He rubs its back to the obvious pleasure of the elephant.
