Mountain squirrell's nest, 'Whispering House', Tangalle, Sri Lanka.

We had a two day stay at the 'Whispering house' guest house in Tangalle, Sri Lanka. We saw a mountain squirrell's nest built out of leaves on a 'Margosa' - 'Neem' - tree. I spotted the couple who built the nest but they were too agile for me to get a photo. I managed to get them on video. Click on the link below to get a glimpse of them:-

The surf

I took the picture of a couple bathing in the Tangalle surf last month. Swathes of the beach front have been bought up by foreigners on a 99 year lease. Tourist guest houses and cabanas  line this area.
